Cambridge HMIS Update: New HMIS Data Standards

October 4, 2021
Hello Cambridge HMIS users!

New HMIS Data Standards Effective as of October 1


On Friday, our instance of Clarity was updated to reflect the new FY22 HUD HMIS Data Standards. End users will see changes to demographic fields on the client's profile screen as well as in enrollment questions for CoC-funded Permanent Supportive Housing projects. 
Gender is now a multi-select picklist, creating more response options to reflect the spectrum of gender identity. 
Please checkout the FY22 HUD HMIS Data Standards page on our website where you can view the following resources:
Changes to the Client Profile Page
New Enrollment Questions for PSH Projects
FY22 HMIS Data Standards Manual (HUD)

New Clarity feature: Disabling Condition error messages


Several weeks ago, we shared guidance on answering the Disabling Condition questions of project enrollment. Clarity now has built in error messages to let you know if there is a data validation issue between the first yes/no Disabling Condition field and the specific condition fields. This feature went into effect along with the updated FY22 data standards. Please watch out for this error message and correct your responses accordingly.

Do you have a burning question about Clarity or HMIS? Is there content you’d like to see in future newsletters or on our website? Reply to this email and let us know!
