The system, known as HMIS, enables programs to electronically share information about Clients who have been entered into the system. Client-level information can only be shared among agencies that listed in this Inter-Agency Sharing Agreement and have received written consent from particular Clients agreeing to share their personal information with another agency. The agency receiving written consent has the ability to “share” Client information electronically through the system with a collaborating agency. This process can benefit Clients by eliminating the need to re-tell their story to provider, and improve coordination of services.
