Using Outreach

Viewing Individuals in Outreach

Learn how to view Individuals (client locations outside of an encampment) within the Outreach map in Clarity Human Services.

The Outreach map can be filtered to view Individuals, Encampments, or both. "Individuals" in Outreach are client locations that are not contained in an encampment. "Individuals" are distinct from "Persons," which are client locations within an encampment. For more information about adding clients to an Encampment or directly to the map, please visit Persons in Encampments and Adding Individuals to the Outreach Map.

As explained in Introduction to Outreach, system administrators establish settings for each Continuum of Care (CoC) in Outreach Settings, specifying what types of locations populate the map. The most recent client location data from the Location tabgeolocation fields, and geolocation-enabled service items automatically populate Outreach based on the CoC's Location Filters

Notes:

  • The Individuals displayed within Outreach depend on the CoC's Outreach Encampment Location Filters
  • Locations in Client Profile screens are static (unlike the other locations in Outreach, which always display the most recent record). Consequently, if fields in Client Profile screens are used as "Geolocation Field Based" criteria for location filters, users should always update the client's current location in the Client Profile, even if they track it elsewhere.

Multiple Individuals in the Same Location View

When two or more clients have a location at the same address on the map, the Individual marker shows the number of clients.

 

Clicking the Individual marker displays a Profiles Info pop-up, which lists information for all clients with locations at the address.
