HS2 Homefinder is a solution developed by Health Care Services Agency (HCSA), in partnership with Information Technology Department (ITD), to assist in matching people experiencing homelessness to permanent housing units. Originally named Permanent Support Housing (PSH), HS2 Homefinder, is an upgrade from an existing Microsoft Access Database, that was previously developed for the Home Stretch Team when matching clients to Permanent Supportive Housing Units. Building on the previous success that ITD has had in developing solutions on the low-code Salesforce Platform, including the COVID Hotel, Health Care Services Agency opted to leverage the Salesforce Platform to build out the enhanced version of this solution.
