The Coordinated Access system helps individuals and families access homeless services, housing options, and support services.

Purpose

Coordinated Access (CA) Navigators help individuals and families experiencing homelessness to submit a Vulnerability Assessment and gather all the documents needed to complete housing applications. 

Roles & Responsibilities

Any service provider in Baltimore City that helps people experiencing homelessness find housing can register as a Coordinated Access (CA) Navigator. CA Navigators must receive funding to support behavioral health services, homeless outreach, and/or case management. CA Navigators also need to have internal supervision to ensure everything is done ethically and appropriately.

Coordinated Access is overseen by the Homeless Response Committee on the Baltimore City Continuum of Care (CoC) Board. If you are interested in joining the Homeless Response System Committee, please complete an interest form. To join the committee, you must have an active membership in the CoC.
