Coordinated Entry ART Reports: The Housing Referrals Report

“Is the person I assessed appearing on the Priority List?”
“Are there any pending referrals for my housing program I need to update?”
“Does anyone at my shelter have a referral for housing?”

When you need to answer these questions and others like them, check out the Coordinated Entry reports in ART!

In the previous newsletter, we introduced the Assessor Agency Check report. Today, we will talk about the Housing Referrals report.

What is the report’s full name?
MIN-00-CES-258 - CE Housing Referrals

Who should run it?
Housing Providers

What is it used for?
To view clients with pending, acknowledged, or resolved referrals for the specified housing program(s).

Five questions the report can answer:
1. What is the current status of my programs’ referrals?
2. Do I need to acknowledge any referrals?
3. Do I need to resolve any referrals?
4. Do I need to explain why any referrals were unsuccessful?
5. Are there any clients who I know have moved into housing and need to be removed from the Priority List?
