CoC Network Meetings

River Valleys CoC holds open meetings on a monthly basis to learn and coordinate our response to homelessness.

All CoC meetings are currently being held virtually using the Zoom platform. This will continue until further notice. When the Full CoC meets in person, meeting locations rotate between accessible spaces across the 20-county region to increase access for more people.

Calendar

Participating in CoC meetings

The Continuum of Care is open to anyone who wants to contribute to a systemic and regional approach to ending homelessness. Participants include agency representatives, people with lived experience of homelessness, and other community members.

Virtual meetings 

​The Full CoC (all members and participants from the public) meets virtually most of the time. All CoC virtual meetings are being held via the Zoom meeting platform.

Using Zoom

Voting

All members in the CoC are allowed to vote on most items of business. For votes on project rankings and the regional application for HUD CoC funding, voting is limited to CoC members who have attended at least 50% of Full CoC meetings in the previous 12 months.

Bad Weather Policy 

(For in-person meetings only) If schools are cancelled due to weather anywhere in the region, the meeting will be cancelled. 

Agendas and notes

Meeting notes for the Full CoC are posted below for a period of at least one year. Notes from Full CoC meetings over one year ago are available by request.
