Homeless Shelter CSDB

Requirements

The Homeless Shelter CSDB requires an Internet hosting account that supports:

php (version 5.3.0 or greater)
MySQL (version 4.1 or above)

General Concepts

The Homeless Shelter CSDB database application records client activity at one or more of your homeless shelter locations. Each location may have one or more lodging or service facilities.

The Homeless Shelter CSDB supports four types of users: administrators (or super users), homeless shelter managers, date entry users, and view-only users. Each user group has its own set of features.

The Super User is a staff member responsible for managing the database for all shelter locations. The super user doesn’t perform data entry regarding client services and stays, but manages the program at a higher level. Specifically, the super user:

manages the shelter location or locations
manages the user accounts for other super users, shelter managers, and data entry users
runs reports that provide information about the program at an organizational level and summaries for each location
manages the database backups

The Shelter Manager is a staff member responsible for managing clients at a single location. The shelter manager:

adds and maintains client and client contact records
perform data entry to record client stays and services
run a variety of reports related to client activities at their location, including rosters
manage, configure, and personalize a variety of lists associated with their location
manages the list of facilities at this location, including the rooms and beds at each location

A Data Entry User has similar data entry abilities as the shelter manager, but can not edit or delete existing records. In addition, the data entry user does not have access to report.

The View-Only user has access to various reports, with limited access to client information.

Features

The Homeless Shelter Client Services Database offers the following features:

Supports multiple locations (cities), multiple buildings within a location
Configurable rooms and beds within a building
CMS for clients and client contacts
Client ledgers (credits can be applied to stays)
Ability to save unlimited scanned images and documents for each client
Roster for current residents, or for any day in the past
Occupancy and banned/suspended client reports
Ability to log services for clients
Flag clients as “banned” or “suspended”
Search for clients by client ID, first/last name, or last four of SSN

Webmaster’s Rating

Tested & Working

This label indicates that I could install the script without major problems and I could run the script without the need for major modifications to the original code (except for the usual configuration, of course). The label does, on the other hand, not indicate that scripts without this label would not work properly. The missing of the „tested & working“-label just indicates that I did not yet test these scripts.

Webmaster’s Choice

This label indicates that the owner of this website uses this script / application for his own projects with success and satisfaction. This does, however, not indicate that these projects could not have been realized using other scripts / applications as well or that other scripts would not fit the demands of other projects as well or even better.
