HOW DOES IT WORK?

Coordinated Entry is a process designed to ensure you have fair and equal access to the community’s resources. With Coordinated Entry, you are quickly identified, assessed, and served with the most appropriate housing solution. Some housing solutions may include a housing program, connecting you with a family member or friend, or helping you get an apartment on your own.

WHO IS ELIGIBLE?

  • Person(s) experiencing literal homelessness, living in a place not meant for human habitation or staying at a public or
    private overnight shelter in Tarrant or Parker County, are eligible.
  • Person(s) fleeing (or attempting to flee) domestic violence, have no other residence, and lack the support network to
    obtain other permanent housing, are eligible for Coordinated Entry assistance.
  • Person(s) must also reside in Tarrant or Parker County.

HOW DO I GAIN ACCESS?

The first step is to go to a location like an emergency shelter that can document your homelessness. Homeless documentation happens if you choose to stay at the shelter overnight. If you are not able or choose not to go to a location, an outreach team can also meet you at your location to document homelessness. Please see the table below for a list of emergency shelters and outreach teams.
