The Coordinated Entry (CE) Metric Report is a broad look into the access, prioritization, referral, and program operations of the Coordinated Entry System. This report utilizes demographic, household, referral, and enrollment data from the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) to observe trends of who is accessing the Coordinated Entry System, who is being prioritized, who is being referred, and who is being housed.

Each Continuum of Care is required by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to conduct an annual evaluation of its Coordinated Entry System, focusing on the quality and effectiveness of the entire coordinated entry experience—including intake, assessment, prioritization, and referral processes—for both consumers and providers.
