Eligibility Verification

These resources are intended to help CT BOS providers to verify CoC program participant eligibility and ensure that participant charts contain adequate eligibility documentation. They have been customized for the CT BOS CoC and may not be entirely applicable to other CoCs. These resources are updated periodically, and the most recent versions are available here.

CT BOS Policies

The CT BOS Steering Committee has adopted policies and provides tools to help support compliance with HUD requirements and efforts to assist homeless people to obtain housing, economic stability and enhanced quality of life.

Project Monitoring

CT BOS offers remote and on-site monitoring to help grantees prepare for HUD monitoring visits, reduce the risk of funding being recaptured by HUD, and identify areas of need for technical assistance. The CT BOS monitoring guide and links to HUD monitoring exhibits are available here. The guide has been customized for the CT BOS CoC and may not be entirely applicable to other CoCs. DMHAS PATH Statewide Monitoring Guide and resources are here as well.
