Officially, the Ministry is not offering any support to communities using HIFIS to assist with fulfilling their reporting requirements, which is why we've put together this set of resources.
Please note that none of these resources are in any way endorsed by the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing, or Housing, Infrastructure and Communities Canada (developers of HIFIS), and should not be interpreted as such.
This report identifies and calculates housing transitions, overriding the Housing Status field in HIFIS and looking directly at Housing History and shelter Admissions. Housing transitions are defined as moving from one category in a Housing Continuum to another. If you wish to utilize custom housing categories, add a custom Housing Continuum, which you will be prompted to select when you run the report.
In part, this report is designed to assist Ontario communities required to report on transitions out of unsheltered homelessness.
