A Coordinated Entry Access Point is the starting place to resolving a housing crisis. Trained staff will listen as you share a brief overview of your current situation, help you problem-solve, connect you to community resources, and support you in finding a safe and appropriate place to sleep when possible. Our CoC Access Points serve Douglas & Sarpy Counties in Nebraska and Pottawattamie County in Iowa.

These resources maintain updated lists of services available in the community. They check in with agencies annually to ensure current information and are the best way to get a complete guide to available nonprofit resources.

During our region’s coldest months, several of our community partners host warming centers across the metro area. Each facility has its own requirements, services, and daily capacities so we recommend staying tuned to each organization’s social media channels for information and updates and calling for availability.
