All referrals for Community Housing programs come through Coordinated Access within Baltimore City. When housing opportunities come available, staff will inform the Baltimore City Coordinated Access team who will alert referring organizations. Once potential participants are screened for eligibility and required documentation is collected, referrals are made to the programs. Potential participants are screened by program staff and once a match is determined, housing placement occurs.
