THE INTAKE1 MODEL
A prescribed household-centered model, not another customized program database.
Intake1 starts with the whole household, creates the First Case Note, builds one household record, and organizes services around one Household Mobility Plan.
Core components
One Household Assessment
A comprehensive, staff-administered personal interview. Not a self-completed application or online intake form.
One Shared Household Record
A cumulative record that follows the household across programs, partners, and staff transitions
Household Authorization & Confidentiality Standard
Information shared only among approved agencies, under informed consent, role-based access, and auditability.
One Household Mobility Plan
Defines household goals, barriers, actions, responsible staff, timelines, resources, and intended outcomes.
The Integration Specialist
Protects the whole household picture across partners and prepares households for Mobility Council review.
The Household Mobility Council
Cross-agency representatives authorized to act, commit resources, and carry out one Household Mobility Plan.
Shared Household Outcome Measurement
Measures progress toward stability, mobility, reduced crisis use, income growth, and economic independence.
Economic Independence
The ultimate household destination: increased earned income, reduced dependency, asset ownership, and financial resilience.
Ten household domains
✓ Health
✓ Nutrition
✓ Housing and Utilities
✓ Income Stabilization
✓ Employment and Training
✓ Childcare and Early Learning
✓ Education
✓ Justice and Reentry Support
✓ Child and Family Welfare
✓ Legal and Safety
The model standard
Agencies may still enter required information into funder systems. Intake1 comes first so the agency sees the whole household before dividing the work into program requirements.
