What Is Coordinated Entry?
A system of intake, assessment and referral
• Same assessment tool• Collective set of policies and procedures • Access to comprehensive information • Matches each individual or family to the “right
sized” intervention

Preliminary Research
• In many homeless systems, resources are conferred on a small subset of families with primarily “economic” needs
• While those with multiple significant challenges fall thru the cracks
• CE makes it easier for communities to match applicants to the services they need, no matter how difficult their barriers are to address

Without Coordinated Entry:
• Potential of multiple agency visits• Intake forms or requirements• HMIS data entry• Slow down in assistance for families• Extra staff time & money for providers

Two Main Models
Centralized
Decentralized
![Page 9: Review of “ One Way In ” NAEH Coordinated Entry Briefing Paper](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815f12550346895dcdd85d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Centralized & Decentralized
• Single location vs. multiple locations (and/or 211)• Small city/good transit vs. large/spread out with
poor transit• Fewer vs. more sites needed (and more
coordination)• Accessibility is a concern in both models• No set staffing plan

System Mapping
• “Map” existing services and see what’s lacking• If there is overlap and duplication, evaluate
what unique services each program provides and where there are opportunities for collaboration
