We hope to help develop and support team members throughout the CoC and provide national best practices to provide high-quality and equitable services throughout our community. This training is only intended for staff of the CoC, it is not intended for members of the general public. If you have questions regarding TWH training, materials offered, or recommendations. Please contact twhtraining@homelesshouston.org.

Many materials used for self-paced training (e.g., training videos and material packets) are the same as those used in live, interactive group training; however, in self-paced training, you review these materials at your own speed.

The Way Home Communication Training
The Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) is a computerized data collection tool specifically designed to capture client-level, system-wide information over time on the characteristics and services needs of men, women, and children experiencing homelessness.
HMIS allows the aggregation of client-level data across homeless service agencies to generate unduplicated counts and service patterns of clients accessing services.
