COORDINATED ASSESSMENT WORKGROUP

Coordinated Entry Systems allow Continuums of Care to coordinate program participant intake, assessment, and provision of referrals. Coordinated Entry prioritizes entry into the homeless services system based on assessments of clients' vulnerabilities and needs, improves efficiency, and helps to limit duplication of services. These processes help communities prioritize assistance based on severity of service needs to ensure that people who need assistance the most can receive it in a timely manner. Partners Ending Homelessness serves as the Coordinated Entry Lead for the Guilford County Continuum of Care.

​

Our Coordinated Entry program works with partner agencies to:

​

  • determine and verify clients' eligibility for assistance,

  • assess clients' strengths, needs, and barriers to housing,

  • score clients using the designated assessment tool,

  • prioritize clients who are literally and/or chronically homeless,

  • ensure access to the Coordinated Entry System for community members, and

  • complete referrals to other programs and agencies that may be able to assist clients and community members
