The top half of this page provides some descriptive statistics of our various scales of analysis: project types (of which there are 7 and a federally standardized definition), service providers (whom are specific to the Dallas metropolitan area and who we assigned aliases to protect their identities) and clients who are using the overall housing system. Each service provider may offer various programs and services and can be categorized within one of the seven project types.
The data presents four main narratives that explain how individual clients interact with the homelessness system. Scroll to see each narrative, the service provider associated with them and the client duration in the system.
