CE Participating Agency Resources
|
River Valleys CoC has developed detailed policies and procedures, helpful resources, and training opportunities for agencies and programs that participate in Coordinated Entry (CE) in our region.
CE policies are maintained by the Coordinated Entry Committee and are approved by the CoC membership. Procedures and forms may be changed as needed by CoC staff to maintain alignment with approved CE policies. Participating agencies are required to use approved forms for completing assessments and receiving referrals. The most current version of forms will be posted here. |
Policies
Policies define and guide our CE system. They answer "why" our CE system exists and "what" it is meant to do.
Three primary sets of policies guide our CE system. Funder requirements for individual programs also affect how CE works.

Minnesota Statewide CE System Policies and Procedures FrameworkThe Statewide CE System Framework provides a base level of alignment across all CoCs in Minnesota.

Minnesota's HMIS PoliciesMany parts of the CE system are managed in HMIS (Homeless Management Information System). The policies of Minnesota's HMIS further define how to use the data system and how decisions about the data system will be made. >> Read the HMIS Policies |
Procedures
Procedures detail "how" we will implement the CE system that was agreed in policy, in a way that works for people across the multiple counties and through many agencies that are involved in the homelessness response system.
Procedures are defined by role or activity: housing problem solving & assessment, housing provision, navigation, and case conferencing.
