Background

211OC hosts HMIS User Meetings monthly. The monthly meetings take place via webinar. Links to the monthly webinar meetings are sent out over email to all active HMIS users and Agency Administrators and we also have them on the HMIS website and calendar.

 

The HMIS User Meetings give HMIS Staff a chance to announce new features of HMIS, changes to HMIS, changes to HUD Data Standards, and more. The meetings also allow users to bring up questions or concerns.
