Coordinated Entry (formerly called Coordinated Assessment) operates as a portal of entry process that aims to connect individuals and families who are homeless, or those at imminent risk of becoming homeless, to an existing available shelter/housing resource in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg community.
Coordinated Entry uses a specific definition of homeless. A homeless person is someone:
Living in in a place not meant for human habitation, or
Living in emergency shelter (including domestic violence shelter), or
Living in transitional housing for homeless persons, with an imminent exit date, or
Exiting an institution where they temporarily resided for up to 90 days (and were in a shelter or a place not meant for human habitation immediately prior to entering that institution)
The Harvest Center of Charlotte is currently interviewing families and individuals for our CLT Passport Program (transitional housing ). If you have any families or individuals that are interested in the program, please reach out to our intake coordinator Kristine at intake@theharvestcenter.org
