greenriver/boston-cas
The Boston Coordinated Access System (CAS) project by the City of Boston's Department of Neighborhood Development matches homeless individuals to housing vacancies based on need. CAS works in conjunction with the HMIS Warehouse (https://github.com/greenriver/hmis-warehouse) to use HMIS data in finding matches.
