Coordinated Entry

MACH's Coordinated Entry System (CES) provides a consistent process for participating agencies to assess housing needs, connect households experiencing homelessness to available resources, and make referrals to housing programs based on established prioritization standards.

This page provides CES guidance, tools, written standards, training, and assistance for participating agencies.
