CMIS
"Building Strength Through Community Collaboration"
what is CMIS?...
A Community Management Information System (CMIS) is a software application designed to record and store client-level information on the characteristics and service needs of homeless persons. A CMIS is typically a web-based software application that homeless assistance service providers use to coordinate care, manage their operations, and better serve their clients.
CMIS implementations can encompass geographic areas ranging from a single county to an entire state. A CMIS knits together homeless assistance providers within a community and creates a more coordinated and effective housing and service delivery system.
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and other planners and policy makers at the federal, state and local levels use aggregate CMIS data to obtain better information about the extent and nature of homelessness over time. Specifically, a CMIS can be used to produce an unduplicated count of homeless persons, understand patterns of service use, and measure the effectiveness of homeless programs.
Pathway Compass is the CMIS system administered by the Marion County Homeless Council. This web-based software application captures, compiles, and shares unduplicated client level demographics. The Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) program is mandated by HUD for State and Federal funds. Through a collaboration with participating local service providers, the MCHC is able to assess homeless characteristics, unmet needs, and implement best practices to eliminate homelessness and assist residents in acquiring or maintiaing affordable housing.
