VCRHYP Intake Assessment

Use when: • A new client enters a project • A previously-served client enters a project and it has been a full month or more

since they were last exited Do not use when:

• A client is reentering the same project they exited from less than one month ago o See Project Reentry Form on pg. 6

• A client is switching between projects due to changes in circumstances, eligibility, etc.

o See Project Switch Form on pg. 7 This form:

• Includes questions you are required to ask by FYSB, as well as questions VCRHYP suggests asking

o All questions required by FYSB need to be answered completely § Check the “Data not collected” box if you did not ask a FYSB-

required question o Non-FYSB required questions are italicized

§ Check “Data not collected” if you did not ask a non-FYSB required question

• Should be sent to VCRHYP to be entered into HMIS Things to remember:

• All member agencies, except for Spectrum, will choose VT-500 Vermont Balance of State CoC for “Client Location”

• Documentation of disabilities is not required: a youth’s self-report is considered sufficient to answer “Yes”

• Dr. Dynasaur should be marked off as “Medicaid” in the Health Insurance section • Monthly income only needs to be gathered for youth in TLP • If a youth/family cannot answer the questions about current or past DCF

involvement and sign a Release of Information, you should follow-up with your DCF district office to try and get this information; if you are successful in getting it, pass it onto VCRHYP so we can update the youth’s data in HMIS

o The Disability Addendum does not need to be sent to VCRHYP unless there have been changes to a client’s disability status

Things to remember:

• You can write “No Changes” above any section on the form that remains the same for the client (except for the Employment and Enrollment Status section, which must have answers)

• VCRHYP will send a reminder to complete Quarterly Updates in the last month of each quarter, along with a list of youth who have been served during the quarter

o A Quarterly Update must be submitted for all youth served during the quarter, even those who have exited

§ However, for youth who have exited during the quarter, the only sections that need to be completed are Employment and Enrollment Status and Brokered Housing
