SVHC Coordinated Entry System
|
As defined by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the Coordinated Entry System (CES) is a centralized, community-wide process designed to identify, engage, and assist households experiencing, or at risk of experiencing, homelessness; coordinate the intake, assessment and referral for services that meet the level of assistance that is most appropriate to resolving their housing crisis; and prioritize the households with the most severe service needs for assistance in a timely manner.
The SVHC operates a multisite centralized access CES. The CoC has designated Access Points that connect households experiencing a housing crisis to the CES. Households are then connected to Assessment Points where a standard questionnaire is taken to determine the households strengths and service needs. The SVHC incorporates a case conferencing meeting into the CES. The case conferencing committee assists with connecting households to the most appropriate housing solution, as well as any other supportive services.
