[HUDX-235] CE APR (Coordinated Entry Annual Performance Report)


Recipients of HUD Continuum of Care (CoC) funding for Supportive Services Only: Coordinated Entry (SSO: CE) projects are required to submit a Coordinated Entry Annual Performance Report (CE APR) electronically to HUD every operating year in the Sage HMIS Reporting Repository (Sage).  Data collection for the CE APR is aligned with the most recent version of the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) Data Standards.

Programming Specifications

The consolidated specifications for the CE APR ([HUDX-235-AD]) are found on the HUD Exchange under CoC APR and ESG CAPER HMIS Programming Specifications.

The CE APR, APR, and ESG reporting are similar, with the CE APR highlighting Coordinated Entry Specific elements (i.e., 4.19 Coordinated Entry Assessment and 4.20 Coordinated Entry Event). 

Description

The CE  APR is a series of tables with questions about service levels and outcomes for the funded projects. However, this report will include all projects where elements 4.19 Coordinated Entry Assessment and 4.20 Coordinated Entry Event are completed.

The final version is submitted as a zip file of CSV files in Sage. Each question in the report will have a separate CSV.
