The Continuum of Care is an annual funding competition sponsored by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Continuum of Care funds come from federal McKinney-Vento Act dollars and are set aside to assist the nation’s homeless population through housing and supportive services programs.

Beginning in the 2010 competition for renewal projects, BAS-Net will now consist of 50% of project score (75 points). These points will be based on BAS-Net participation and data quality; including 5% or less null or missing data errors of Universal Data Elements; HMIS Client Records area being a true representation of clients currently being served by the agency; participation in HMIS conferences or education days and participation at user group meetings.
