Measure 5237

Metric 4.5 – Change in non-employment cash income for adult system leavers

Program-wideoutcomeFY2026No. 4.5

Tier not determined

No rule matched this measure, so no tier is guessed.

This measure is divided into six tables as shown above. The project types reported in these metrics are the same for all metrics, but the type of income and universe of clients differs. Equally important, the projects reported on are limited to CoC-funded projects, and only adult clients are included. For system stayers (metrics 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3) 1. A “system stayer” is an adult client active in any one or more of the relevant projects as of the [report end date]. 2. The client must have at least 365 days in latest stay to be included in this measure. 3. Use data from each system stayer’s latest assessment up to or on the [report end date] and compare this data to the client’s most recent assessment prior to that one. This may be either an annual assessment or project start data, whichever is later. For system leavers (metrics 4.4, 4.5, and 4.6) 1. A “system leaver” is any adult client who has exited from one or more of the relevant projects between [report start date] and [report end date] and who is not active in any of the relevant projects as of the [report end date]. Use data from each system leaver’s income assessment at project exit and compare this data to the client’s income assessment at project start.
