One of the tenets of our data collection process is maintaining timeliness of data entry. For permanent housing project types, any clients enrolled into your program must be entered into HMIS no more than 7 days after they were accepted into your program.
To know whether the project you are working for is a permanent housing project, you can refer to our Agency Project Types spreadsheet to find out what your project is listed as.
This timeline is a guide for you to know what should be done in HMIS alongside your client's cycle.
