Using the Report

This report has several tabs. Check your prompts on Tab F - Additional Information. Use Tab D - Client Details and Tab E - Disability Detail to confirm data.

 

Tab A – HIC Client Count

Confirm the Household and Client Counts are accurate (only counts clients in households with a Housing Move-In Date)

  • Columns C and D count Adult and Children Households
  • Columns E and F count Adult Only Households 
  • Columns G and H count Child Only Households

 

Tab B- Populations

Confirm everyone is accounted for. The tab is broken into three sections: 

  • Households with at least one Adult and one Child (under age 17)
  • Households without Children (everyone is at least 18)
  • Households with Only Children (under age 18)

If not everyone is accounted for, create a new client profile and/or add them to the project entry in HMIS

 

Tab C- Subpopulations

  • Confirm these are the accurate counts of the individuals experiencing severe mental health disorders, substance use disorders, HIV or AIDS, or Fleeing a Domestic Violence situation.
  • Confirm these are accurate counts for chronically homeless individuals, families, veteran individuals and, veteran families
  • If corrections need to be made, please do so by using EDA mode, Back-Date mode, and correcting the response on the client’s Project Start Assessment

 

Tab D- Client Detail

  • Review this tab for any missing data or potential errors for each client. Errors display as “Data Not Collected”, “DNC”, or be blank: 

  • This example shows that a client is missing the Veteran and Domestic Violence Status. This issue would need to be updated by going into the Entry Assessment and updating the child’s Relationship to Head of Household Status.
  • The Move-In Date column should be populated with the day the client moved into their housing unit. 
  • If you do not see a client on this tab and they should be, check that their Head of Household has a Housing Move-In Date via an Interim Update. To see a list of all clients without Move-In Dates, run the CoC-APR or ESG-CAPER and look at question 7a.
  • If corrections need to be made, please do so by using Enter Data As mode and Back Date mode before adjusting the client’s information

 

Tab E- Disability Detail

  • Please review to confirm if their Disabilities listed for the clients is accurate. Does someone have a disability but they’re not listed on this Tab? Are some disabilities missing?
  • Disabilities will only be counted if the Disability Determination and Disability Long Continued responses are both Yes
  • If corrections need to be made, use Enter Data As mode and Back Date mode before adjusting the client’s information
  • The Disability Determination Question (Disab YN), specific Disability Type, and Follow-up Long-Continued Question (Disab Long Dur) must be complete in order to pull correctly

 

Tab F- Additional Information

  • This tab shows details related to the prompts used to pull the report.
