UHMIS Monitoring Toolkit

(Updated for State Fiscal Year 2024)

2024 UHMIS Monitoring Toolkit Questions

The monitoring questions used for the State Fiscal Year 2024 (July 1, 2023 – June 30, 2024) include the questions and expectations UHMIS inputting organizations will be monitored during the State Fiscal Year 2024. The UHMIS Lead Agency will contact each eligible organization in 2024 to start the monitoring process. This is later than what is outlined in the UHMIS Data Quality Plan; the delay directly results from the ongoing updates of the SFY24 toolkit.

2024 Example UHMIS Agency Policy Manual

This example document is meant to work as a starting point for agencies that require assistance developing or updating their UHMIS Policies and Procedures. It covers all required policies asked about in the SFY24 UHMIS monitoring. Please note that the agency must ensure the policy they approve aligns with its practice and is descriptive of its practices.


UHMIS: State of Utah Data Standards

(DRAFT)

UHMIS: State of Utah Data Standards

The UHMIS: State of Utah Data Standards (DRAFT) contains the additional data elements required by the State of Utah. Many data elements users collect in UHMIS are required by HUD or other federal funding partners; however, the Department of Workforce Services, Housing, and Community Development Homeless Programs Office, along with other homeless services leadership within the State of Utah, require additional data to be collected. 

This document is in draft form, and we encourage and appreciate your input.
