BROWN COUNTY HEALTH AND EDUCATION IMPACT STUDY

Health and Education Impacts of Homelessness and Housing Services in Brown County

At the end of 2023, a grant from Brown County Public Health supported integration of HMIS data into the Community Information System (CIS), in partnership with Achieve Brown County and United Way.

Local providers, hospitals, and schools examined how housing services impact health and education outcomes.

Key Findings

Health Outcomes

  • 55% reduction in ER usage for youth in emergency shelter
  • 76% reduction in ER usage for youth in stable housing

Education Outcomes

  • 100% return to full school attendance for youth receiving outreach services
  • Nearly 30% increase in attendance rates

COORDINATED ENTRY BROWN COUNTY

Coordinated Entry in Brown County

Programs such as Rapid Rehousing and Permanent Housing use a process called Coordinated Entry to screen individuals and families who may be eligible for placement within those programs. The Coordinated Entry process was created to streamline access to the housing solution that fits the situation presented. Based on the assessment, you will be referred to a prioritization list for various program types and provided additional information upon request.

You can request access to a Coordinated Entry Assessment at any No Wrong Door agency in Brown County or you can contact House of Hope at (920) 884-6740.
