The Chicago Coordinated Entry Leadership Team was created to offer oversight and guidance to the Coordinated Entry System (CES) by giving input and direction to shape the CES vision while finding solutions to improve the overall system. This group is facilitated by CSH and meets monthly as a team while smaller break-out groups may meet more often as needed. This team is comprised of leaders from the CoC including the CE Lead Entities and can call upon additional critical voices as needed.
The Coordinated Entry Leadership Team objectives include:
Vision setting
CES compliance and performance monitoring
Prioritization oversight
Amend CES Policies and Procedures, as needed
Members of the CE Leadership Team agree to:
*Participate in monthly CE Leadership Team meetings
*Maintain confidentiality of provider performance that is shared with me for the purpose of barrier-busting and system improvement
*Work to strengthen the Coordinated Entry system so that it can operate at its best by brainstorming ideas, offering solutions, and contributing towards tests when appropriate
*Serve as a champion of the Coordinated Entry System inside and outside of team meetings
