What Your Peers Love About Clarity

Here’s how Clarity has helped your colleagues in the fight against homelessness.
[Clarity] is helping us share data and collaborate across our community to meet our mission and the mandates that we have to protect client-level information; it’s user-friendly for the 1,200 people who have to enter data, which has reduced support cases, decreasing response times.

As a result, we have reallocated resources to training and community engagement which has increased HMIS participation in the community.

WDC is delighted with Clarity Human Services. It’s so easy to enter clients and exit them out of the program. Reports are more specific to our needs and can be customized by my staff. Thank you for Clarity Human Services!

Bitfocus and their Outreach module have provided our community with some phenomenal tools to start tracking and evaluating what unsheltered homelessness truly looks like in our community. Bitfocus and their project team were fantastic in assisting us with getting this software up and running — everything from information gathering to training to implementation was handled perfectly.
