Milwaukee CoC Coordinated Entry
Milwaukee HMIS Coordinated Entry Workflow Training
The Coordinated Entry process is a structured system overseen by the Milwaukee Coalition on Housing and Homelessness (MKE CoC). MKE CoC mandates that staff undergo specific training on Coordinated Entry and how to conduct assessments. ICA offers training exclusively to agencies and users who already have access to HMIS and will be responsible for adding households to and removing households from the HMIS prioritization list. HMIS plays a crucial role in the Coordinated Entry system, serving as one of the tools used to prioritize clients.
