Intake Procedures
Clients or referents call the central intake number (218-751-0722). General questions are answered regarding eligibility, homelessness, and anticipated openings. Referents that are not able to be accommodated immediately are placed on an optional waiting list while every attempt is made to assist the referent in identifying an alternative shelter plan.
Upon vacancy of a family unit the waiting list is reviewed and families with the highest level of need are invited to participate in the application process. This process includes the opportunity to:
1. View the facility
2. Review the terms of the agreement to participate in a housing search and case management
3. Review the resident rules
4. Sign releases of information to verify homelessness
5. Sign releases of information to verify income
Homelessness is determined by utilizing a checklist for eligibility and receiving the verification by a third party in writing, on the Minnesota Housing ”Housing Status Verification/Referral Form” whenever possible. In cases where no written independent verification is possible from a shelter, a case manager or other 3rd party, clients must complete and sign the Minnesota Housing “Housing Status Self-Certification Form” .
Once homelessness is verified, in writing, on the forms provided by Village of Hope, and exclusionary criteria are determined not applicable, applicants are forwarded to the Executive Director for review.
If an applicant is approved, they are accepted and will be allowed to move into Village of Hope. Once a room is available, the homeless advocates will coordinate a move-in date and time with the applicant.

First Nations Home Health serves the Native American population through seven branch locations in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area, and greater Minnesota, including the Duluth and Bemidji areas. With an approach that is culturally-sensitive to the unique ethnic and linguistic needs of Native Americans, our serves are specifically designed to enhance the health and well-being of individuals both on and off the reservation in Red Lake, White Earth, Leech Lake, Bois Fort, Fond du Lac and Mille Lacs. Through our Duluth office and Bemidji area locations we offer a variety of home health care services to help support your loved one to live a more independent and fulfilling life at home, whether they’re in an urban or rural setting. Our team of caregivers, nurses and case managers (many of whom are Native American) provide services that help elders stay at home in familiar cultural surroundings, develop good health habits and reduce hospitalizations. With services such as skilled nursing, mental health, personal care and homemaking, at First Nations Home Health our goal is to improve the health status of Native Americans who experience an unusual high rate of preventable acute and chronic illnesses.
