The Safe Harbors Homeless Management Information System (FIMIS) is a computerized data collection tool designed to capture client level system-wide information over time on the characteristics and service needs of men, women, and children experiencing homelessness and to provide an accurate,unduplicated count of all those experiencing homelessness. The aggregate information provided by the database includes an unduplicated count of homeless people receiving services, the extent and scope of homelessness and service gaps. 2. Safe Harbors will become a critical tool for the Committee to End Homelessness in King County as it implements its Ten Year Plan to End Homelessness, will allow for better coordination among agencies and programs as clients move to greater independence, and will help Seattle/King County successfully compete for national resources,such as the Federal McKinney funds. 3. It is the goal of the King County Continuum of Care, of which UWKC is a partner,that 80% of the records for individual clients entered into Safe Harbors HMIS are uniquely identified. 4.
