There's a section on the coordinated entry form that flags someone as being more vulnerable, but that whole process is likely to be too slow without manipulating it - do we have anyone from CCS or AM in here who can pull some strings?On Wed, Jan 18, 2023, 1:13 PM <dorsett.richard@gmail.com> wrote:Just saw this request. Perhaps we can consider during steering committee meeting. Any good advice?Sent from my iPhone

Reply-To: Wanda Griffin <WGriffin@ccsww.org>Hello everyone,
I am in urgent need of shelter for a client who is 33 weeks pregnant (high risk), fleeing domestic violence from GA and she is deaf. She has a SO.
Please help! I have tried SA, Bethlehem Adams, Helping Hands, etc.
Thanks in advance
