What is the Texas Balance of State HMIS ?
Texas Balance of State (TXB) Homeless Management Information System (HMIS), TXB ClientTrack started its implementation in May of 2008 to the Balance of State Regions. The are 9 regions within the Balance of State with 190 counties participating. The HMIS utilizes secured Internet-based technology to assist homeless service organizations to capture information about the clients that they serve.
Texas Homeless Network is the system administrator and the central server is administered by the software vendor, Data Systems International. There is limited access to the database; access is granted only to programs participating in the project. As the system administrator, Texas Homeless Network provides technology training and technical assistance to users of the system throughout the state.
