    This is a universal update form that lists all the universal data elements necessary for CoC and ESG funded projects.

    Please use this universal update form to inform your own agency's update. 

    Updates (10/2019):

    • Change of Current Residence/Living Situation to Prior Living Situation
    • Addition of new question: Current Living Situation
      • Additional set of conditional logic questions that will appear depending on the answer:
      • Those questions are:
        • Is the client going to have to leave their current living situation within 14 days?
        • Has a subsequent residence been identified?
        • Does an individual or family have resources or support networks to obtain other permanent housing?
        • Has the client had a lease or ownership interest in a permanent housing unit in the last 60 days?
        • Has the client moved 2 or more times in the last
          60 days?
    • Addition of new question: Employment
    • Addition of new question: Pregnancy / Parenthood
    • Addition of new question: Permanent Connections
    • Wording Changes/Picklist Changes:
      • Wording Revisions to Current Living Situation
      • Wording Revisions to Prior Living Situation

     

     

    We encourage agencies to add questions or manipulate this form in a way that best fits the workflow of the agency, particularly if they serve multi-person households.
