Homeless Services Consortium
Board of Directors
The Homeless Services Consortium (HSC) Board of Directors is the governing body for the Madison/Dane County Continuum of Care (CoC). The HSC Board is responsible to operate the Continuum of Care, designate and operate a Homeless Management Information System (HMIS), and engage in CoC planning. The HSC Board approves funding slates for both EHH (Emergency Solutions Grant, Homeless Prevention Program, Housing Assistance Program) and CoC funding competitions.
The HSC Board is made up of 10-17 voting members elected by qualified HSC members at the annual meeting. An additional Board Member represents the lead HMIS function and is a non-voting member. Board member terms are for two years and members may serve for no more than three consecutive two year terms. Please see the HSC bylaws for more specific information on the Board of Directors.
