In today’s landscape of rising housing needs and shrinking budgets, housing programs are under increasing pressure to demonstrate impact.
Whether you’re running an emergency shelter, transitional housing program, or placing survivors in hotel rooms through grant funding, your Grove report gives you more than just numbers. It gives you proof of your program’s reach, insight into who you're serving, and a tangible way to demonstrate why your work matters.
Your Data. Your Story.
The Housing Program Report you receive each month summarizes key activity within your Grove account: number of referrals, the types of rooms available, who’s requesting placements, and how often you were able to accommodate or had to turn away someone in need.
These numbers may seem simple, but for many agencies, they’re filling a gap that’s long existed. Agencies can now have concrete data to show impact, identify barriers, and strengthen proposals for continued or increased funding.
Build the Case for More Resources
Your report makes it easier to showcase demand in real terms: how many referrals came through, where they originated, and how often you had availability. This is the kind of story grant reviewers want to see. It’s not just “we’re full”, it’s “we had 35 referrals in one month and could only place 8.” That data point turns a request into a reality.
Fuel for Reports and Advocacy
Agencies are already using The Grove to strengthen annual reports, inform program planning and provide backup for conversations with funders and policymakers. Some are even sharing snippets with their boards or community partners to highlight just how urgent and essential housing coordination really is.
