COC MEMBERSHIP

A Gold Star Membership in the Tarrant and Parker County Continuum of Care is a designation unique to Agencies, Municipalities, and School Districts providing Homeless Services in our community.  Membership in the Continuum of Care certifies that an organization complies with the following goals:

  • Promote a community-wide commitment to the goal of ending homelessness;
  • Provide funding for efforts to quickly re-house individuals and families who are homeless, which minimizes the trauma and dislocation caused by homelessness;
  • Promote access to and effective use of mainstream programs;
  • Optimize self-sufficiency among individuals and families experiencing homelessness.

Partnership Home is designated to carry out the activities of the CoC, including fiscal and compliance activities. As such, they administer and manage CoC Membership in accordance with the guidelines established and approved by the Governance Committee of the TX-601 Fort Worth/Arlington/Tarrant County CoC.

Annual Membership Dues

Dues for agencies, municipalities, and school districts are based on an agency’s homeless services budget. With a membership structure, in addition to paying an annual membership fee, agencies and municipalities may also have an annual HMIS fee. If agencies are required to pay for HMIS fees, it will be a flat fee based on the number of programs active in HMIS. (See HMIS page for details.) The total bill for the year would include membership dues and (if applicable) HMIS fees.
