The task of the Connecticut Coordinated Access Networks (CT CANs) is to streamline the process for individuals and families experiencing homelessness to access their community’s housing resources in a standardized, comprehensive, and accessible way.

It aims to most efficiently and effectively determine eligibility and availability of housing resources, and targets funding appropriately to end each household’s homelessness.

The CT CANs value a data-driven decision making culture, and use data to align stakeholders, stimulate discussion, and identify opportunities for improved service delivery.
