Coordinated Entry is a process to ensure that all people experiencing a housing crisis have fair and equal access and are quickly identified, assessed for, referred, and connected to housing and assistance based on their strengths and needs.
Denial Forms – Providers must submit denial forms for any denied Coordinated Entry referral. Use the Provider denial form if your agency is denying the referral and use the Client denial form if the client is denying the unit offered by your agency. Denial forms must be submitted to dutchesscoordinatedentry@gmail.com. New referrals will not be issued until a denial form is submitted. A new referral will be automatically generated upon submission of the denial form.
These are administrative forms to be used by CoC grant recipients to request grant funds and adjust unit counts.
