Coordinated Entry
Entry Into A Quest Community Begins With The Gateway Center
We exclusively utilize Gateway Center’s Coordinated Entry Program to connect individuals to housing within our communities, ensuring that those most in need receive the support and stability they deserve.
How Gateway's Coordinated Entry Works
01
Access
The Gateway Center is the point of engagement with the coordinated entry/crisis response system. Persons experiencing homelessness will connect with a housing assessor. ​
02
Assessment
Client's needs are assessed by completing the VI-SPDAT assessment. Each household receives a vulnerability score that is used in determining prioritization for PSH.​​
​
03
Prioritization
Once the client’s information has been submitted to the housing queue and determined to be chronically homeless, they will be matched with a housing navigator. ​​​
04
Referral
Once the best housing intervention has been identified, a referral will be made to an agency that has vacancies. If both parties accept, paperwork is collected, leases are signed.
