CES Scoop - Hennepin CoC Coordinated Entry

Housing Providers

When to request a referral

 

When your program has an upcoming vacancy, request a referral quickly!

  • It may take a few days for CES to send you a referral.
  • It may take you a week or more to make contact with the client.
  • It may take you a week or more to complete intake with the client.

Build in a buffer so your opening does not sit vacant for too long.
