Update HMIS Participating Agency Contacts
A few staff members at your agency play key roles in managing your organization's use of the HMIS and serve as main points-of-contact for RTFH on various HMIS issues. New agencies have to identify which staff members will play each of these roles and all agencies are asked to update the list of HMIS contacts on a regular basis.

Please review the HMIS-related roles described below, confer with your team and - once you have designated the most appropriate choice of staff member for each role - provide the name and contact information for the staff member at your agency who will serve in that role by filling out the form below.

If you have questions or would like guidance from RTFH on the best individual for each role, please email Support at support@rthfsd.org.

Thank you!
