The new Continuum of Care regulations mandate that communities develop written standards that lay out eligibility and prioritization criteria for transitional housing, rapid re-housing, and permanent supportive housing programs. This workshop will discuss how homeless assistance systems can take advantage of this new opportunity to codify best practices in terms of targeting and service matching across the system and integrate their new written standards with their coordinated assessment referral process.
