Continuum of Care
CAHMCO is the fiscal agent for the Continuum of Care Committee, which has as its mission to end homelessness in McHenry County.
The Continuum is a network of agencies that work collaboratively to meet the needs of homeless individuals and families.
Intake, assessment and outreach services are provided through the Provider’s Communication Network (PCN), an on-line program developed specifically to provide accessible empirical data on the homeless population, as well as the inventory of housing units and services available.
The Continuum of Care Coordinator works with the McHenry County, Regional and State Continua agencies to advance its mission of ending homelessness in McHenry County. Not only does HUD look to the Continuum of Care model to work together to identify the gaps in homeless housing and services, and to determine the appropriate projects and programs for McHenry County, but also the Illinois Department of Human Services (DHS) and the Illinois Department of Commerce (DCCA) are looking to the Continuum of Care process in determining how funding should be allocated to programs and projects assisting homeless individuals and families.
