Liza discussed whether this is due to less people needing services or not reaching the population.

iii) Matt said the HARA is screening more people while admitting fewer clients, and admitting more people to their HCV list.

c) Outcome reportsi) Matt noted outcomes measures seem to be up, except for the VOA shelter. He

also said NCA is only serving about 1/3 of the people they used to, which might mean their data has a problem.

agreed this could be work a closer look. They also agreed to look on the income outcomes.
