A collaboration of multiple agencies that provide a centralized coordinated access point for households experiencing homelessness or a housing crisis to seek assistance (CHA). Eligible households will be assessed for services and added to a Housing By Name List for all programs they qualify for. This is not a crisis line, and there may be a wait for both shelter and housing.
