HMIS Homeless Management Information System

MISSION To provide standardized and timely information to improve access to housing and services, and strengthen our efforts to end homelessness.

MISSION (cont.) To eventually provide as comprehensive a picture of homelessness as possible, by incorporating information from all emergency shelters, transitional housing, and permanent supportive housing providers, as well as other points of contact for people experiencing homelessness, such as outreach programs and drop-in centers.

Definition A Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) is a software application designed to record and store client-level information on the characteristics and service needs of homeless persons.

Definition (cont.) An HMIS is typically a web-based software application that homeless assistance providers use to coordinate care, manage their operations, and better serve their clients.

Importance Every Continuum of Care (CoC) is required to implement an HMIS and is scored annually in the CoC NOFA. Local HMIS data is critical for the Annual Homeless Assessment Report (AHAR) Implementation of HMIS at the local level can support coordinated case management.
