KANSAS CITY, MO: CaseWorthy, Inc., is excited to announce their new partnership with Mid-America Regional Council (MARC) as the Homelessness Management Information System (HMIS) that will enable Kansas City area agencies to securely share information and better coordinate the delivery of services.
As stated in MARC’s press release, “We are excited about the potential that the new HMIS system (CaseWorthy™) offers for our local agencies,” said Greg Porter, chair of the Greater Kansas City Coalition to End Homelessness (GKCCEH). “The new system will help our agencies coordinate intake for those seeking assistance, share information to ensure clients receive the services they need, and generate reports and track trends to help the community understand and respond to needs for stable housing.”
The new system will:
- Allow for easy tracking of clients to ensure that their needs are well defined
- Enable case managers to identify programs from which clients are eligible to receive services
- Allow for appropriate referrals and track delivery of services
- Allow agencies to use the system for their own case management, as well as interagency coordination
- Allow for completion of standardized forms and assessment tools to collect information
- Allow agencies and the community to design customized workflows such as coordinated intake and generate a variety of reports
