Control point 4 — Referrals · Referral partners

Tell us the housing need you cannot place.

If you work with people who need stable housing and you keep running into the same wall — no beds, no appropriate model, no one who will take the referral — tell us about it. We connect organizations with operators who run the right kind of housing.

Start the partner form How the referral network works

We do not pay for referrals and we do not accept payment for placements. The relationship is about appropriate housing, not transaction fees.

Control point 4ReferralsControl occupancy by controlling the relationships that produce it.

What this is not

We do not pay referral fees or per-placement compensation
We do not accept payment to move someone up a list
We do not promise a placement will be available
We do not make clinical or eligibility determinations for you
We do not override your organization's own screening

Patient brokering and unlawful referral compensation carry real legal exposure in most states. If you are looking for a paid placement pipeline, this is not it — and we would tell you that plainly regardless.

What you can expect

Operators who know the model

Housing operators who understand the difference between co-living, recovery housing, reentry housing and licensed care — and who operate the one that fits your population.

Honest capacity answers

If there is no bed, we say so. A referral partner who is told yes and then finds no room stops referring.

Clear house expectations

House rules, testing policies and resident agreements shared up front, so you can prepare the person you are referring.

No interference with your role

Your case management, treatment and supervision relationships stay yours. The operator provides housing.

Does your organization provide case management?Does your organization provide transportation?Does your organization provide clinical or treatment services directly?

This matters because the operator provides housing — not the services your organization delivers. Knowing who does what prevents gaps after placement.

Anything else?Constraints, timelines, previous placements that went well or badly
