Completing a Coordinated Entry housing assessment may or may not lead to a housing option and does not solve your immediate housing crisis. We encourage you to continue to explore other options. Please find additional resources and information here. If you have a question about the Coordinated Entry System that is not answered here, please email the Coordinated Entry Team at ces@chicagococ.org or leave a voicemail at 872.296.5004.
HOUSING ASSESSMENTS: Anyone sleeping in a shelter, outside, in a vehicle, or any place not meant for human habitation can complete a housing assessment by going to an In-Person Access Point or calling the Phone Access Point at 312.971.4178. Please note that this may or may not lead to a housing option and does not solve your immediate housing crisis.
