3Do you mean Shelter aka Housing assistance?No, it's just the type of Service.
10
4I dont do Housing. I provide resources on wear they could go and apply for Housing?I think this applies to the work you do, but it might be easier to discuss after the webinar. Can you e-mail me at beau.anderson@ct.gov to set up a time?
11
5can service reports be generated for these services?Yes.
12
6How do we know if our company is a designated walk in CAN location?Each CAN is in the process of working with partners to identify the CAN hub locations where walk-ins will occur.
13
7How do we know if our company is a designated walk in CAN location?It will be determined by CAN policy/procedures, which will be finalized and shared after these changes go live in the CTHMIS system. No site will be designated for walk-in CAN enrollment without notice.
14
8I've noticed the pet questions have been missing in the workflows (for me) lately. Is this a permanent change or are they coming back?They should not be missing submit a ticket to help@nutmegit.com
15
9Is this intake form the same as the one that 211 fills out when the referral comes through them?No. 2-1-1 completes a separate form to create an appointment in the system.

THIS form/process is for enrolling people into CAN if they have a 2-1-1 appointment (basically the same way we've been doing it since 2014) *or* if they are eligible to be enrolled as a walk-in.
16
10Is any of the youth data sent to DCF? Or is the data aggregated? I think some youth will be very hesitant to answer questions if they know their individual information will sent back to DCF.Only aggregated data is shared with DCF.

Coordinated Entry Event Scenarios
24
18Where do we get this form from?cthmis.com > COORDINATED ACCESS / EXIT
25
19These events go on an annual report to HUD, so they can see how many Diversion sessions, referrals to other programs we have made as a state.Correct, the Coordinated Entry APR will pull all of the CE Events entered and is used to report CAN/CE data to HUD

27
21Will boosters be added to the vacc question eventually?They are already added
28
22what happens if the client does not know the prior zip code?Lookup the zip for the city or town and use any zip code that matches the city or town the client says.
29
23please explain how to create an HMIS # for a walk-in CAN AssessmentPlease see if the client already exists in HMIS before proceeding. If not, create the client record.
30
24You go into HMIS and under any client click "process referral". type in all the information and it will search for the client. then click this is a new client...but *only* click on "this is a new client" if you do not find the client.
31
25What is the difference in HMIS between a referral from 211 and a walk-in?If a client is referred by 2-1-1, you will find their name and client ID on your CAN Appointment Schedule. Use that Client ID/HMIS ID to proceed with the workflow.

If a client presents in person (walk-in) and is not on the CAN Appointment Schedule, follow your CAN policy and process to determine if the client should be enrolled as a walk-in.
