Homeless Management Information System (HMIS)

The Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) is an information system used to collect client-level data. It also collects data on the provision of housing, shelter, and services. It tracks services for individuals and families who are homeless or at-risk of homelessness. 

The HMIS software used by OHCS and the Oregon Continuums of Care is ServicePoint. The Portland Housing Bureau administers HMIS. They implement the program through NW Social Services Connections (NWSSC).

Many of the links presented below are meant to serve as helpful guides to OHCS local providers. We realize each office has a workflow that may vary. Please contact your agency HMIS administrator with any agency-specific questions.
