Research and Data

Calgary Homeless Foundation (CHF) has an international reputation as a leading contributor to applied homelessness research, while also being a partner on some of the world’s most important research on homelessness. Making evidence-based decisions and planning based on research is a key tenet of CHF’s role as System Planner for Calgary’s Homeless-Serving System of Care. A key ingredient to this approach has been the Homelessness Management Information System (HMIS) which we are constantly looking to expand and enhance.
