Homeless Management Information Service (HMIS)

The Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) application is a VA Registry for homeless Veterans. It is a comprehensive data warehouse of information about Veterans who receive services provided by VA administered programs. Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) grantees enter client-level data into local homeless management systems, which receive funding from the Department of Housing and Urban Development but are operated by independent Continuums of Care (CoCs).The VA HMIS Repository is essentially a gateway for sending data.
