Multiple Matching to Permanent Supportive Housing

This Interim Guidance improves the efficiency of the Coordinated Entry System (CES) by increasing the number of participants matched to Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) resources (project-based vacancies or tenant-based subsidies). Matching more than one individual or house hold to a resource decreases the length of time between a match and successful occupancy.

Updating and Correcting Population-Appropriate CES Triage Tool Scores
|
This Guidance indicates when it is appropriate or necessary to update or correct a participant’s population-appropriate CES Triage Tool score. While this Guidance addresses score revision, case conferencing should still be utilized to capture the full extent of a participant’s vulnerability. The score from the CES Triage Tool should be only one factor among others in the prioritization process.
