Homeless Management Information System (HMIS)
More in this section
Idaho’s Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) is an electronic data collection system specifically designed to capture client-level, longitudinal, system-wide information on the characteristics and service needs of men, women, and children experiencing homelessness. HMIS provides standardized data to improve our understanding of homelessness in Idaho and to measure the progress in meeting the national strategic goal of preventing and ending homelessness.
