Coordinated Entry

The Sonoma County Coordinated Entry System is operated by HomeFirst. Coordinated Entry is a streamlined system designed to efficiently match people experiencing homelessness to available supportive housing programs. It prioritizes those who are most in need of assistance and provides crucial information that helps communities strategically allocate resources and identify gaps in service. Sonoma County’s Coordinated Entry system employs a Housing First model that prioritizes individuals and families facing the highest vulnerability and needs for permanent, supportive housing. Coordinated Entry is not an emergency response system. Those who are experiencing a housing crisis, should contact a local emergency shelter program. Those interested in enrolling in Coordinated Entry should contact one of the Access Sites on the flyer posted below.
