Why is this happening?
Currently, the SSVF providers around the country are being required to implement rapid resolution as a piece of the homeless crisis response system.  To help support this implementation In the TX BoS CoC, the expectation moving forward will be that all Coordinated Entry Regions will be using Rapid Resolution before enrolling a household into the Coordinated Entry process.  We know that our systems are at capacity and we do not have enough resources available for everyone who comes to our doors for help.  That's where Rapid Resolution comes in, it makes us stop and have a conversation with folks showing up at our doors to see how can we keep them stably housed where they are as long as it's safe and appropriate. All entry points for Coordinated Entry will be required to have these rapid resolution conversations with folks over the course of 14 days before they allow households to enter the coordinated entry process.  Households will still be encouraged to access emergency shelter during those 14 days.
