Background

The project exit date determine the end of a client's period of participation with a project. All projects need this data element for reporting time spent participating in the project.
Record the month, day and year of last day of occupancy or service. For each client's enrollment in a project, there should only be one Project Exit Date. Any errors in entering the date should be corrected as soon as they are noticed. This data is to be collected for all clients for all project exits. For additional information, please refer to the HMIS Data Standard Manual.
