FAQs & Housing Resources

  • Many of our properties have units that are designated to applicants from the HUD Cordinated Entry system. Coordinated Entry (CE) is a centralized and coordinated process designed to help get intakes, assessments, and referrals to property owners around the state.

    The best way to find out how to get in touch with your local CE is using the HB 101 MN Map which can be found at https://mn.hb101.org/i/map/homeless_map.htm

  • The United Way 211 website is the best resource to talk with about emergency and housing navigation services.

    Minnesota Housing’s website - Find Housing Help - has so many resources to help keep you in your existing space or to help you plan for your next move.

    Your county website is a great tool to find local resources and contacts.

  • United Way 2-1-1

    211 is a phone line available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, in multiple languages.

    211 refers people to essential services like rental assistance, food programs, childcare, employment resources, etc.

    211 serves as a standardized entry point for people to call to get connected to our Coordinated Entry System and rental assistance programs.

  • The gateway to the homeless response system and housing is the Coordinated Entry System (CES).

    How does it work?

    All households who are at risk of being unhoused or experiencing homelessness need to call 2-1-1. At that time, if a household is at risk of losing their housing but can maintain it with some assistance (e.g., rental/housing assistance), they are referred to the county triage team in their community to begin applying for assistance.

    This map will help you find resources no matter where you are in Minnesota.

  • First, call the United Way Eviction Process Help Line. They will put you and anyone you live with in touch with special resources to keep you in your current home. If you need to move out, please head over to the “Where do I go to apply?” tab and see the process from that view.
