Housing Hope Data Team Infobase

Internal staff site for Housing Hope's data team. Hosted on GitHub Pages at housinghopehelp.xyz.

What this is

A static website that serves as a reference hub for Housing Hope staff — mostly training docs, system guides, and quick-access tools for day-to-day data work. Not a web app, just a collection of HTML pages with mixed styling (mostly Bootstrap, with some page-specific stylesheets).

Site contents

• Crisis page — incident reporting steps and emergency contacts
• Definitions — HUD homelessness categories (chronic, literal, etc.)
• Unit Designations — dictionary of housing unit type codes
• Program Enrollment (Prog) — how to identify and enroll clients in programs
• Entry/Exit — adding/removing family members from programs
• Updates — move-in and assessment update procedures
• Flowchart — ADP system workflow
• HMIS Updates 2025 — system changes for the year
• Documents — downloadable PDFs and forms (assessments, ROIs, housing plans)

Python tools

A couple of utility scripts that staff download and run locally:

• fscpanel.py — tkinter-based GUI tool for processing housing data
• adpnote.py — PyQt5-based ADP payroll helper
• RemotePythonInstaller.bat — sets up Python + dependencies on staff machines

Tech

Static HTML/CSS/JS with mixed page styling. No build step, no framework — just files served by GitHub Pages. Python tooling includes pandas, requests, tkinter, PyQt5, Pillow, and fuzzywuzzy.

Access and visibility

The repository and GitHub Pages site are public. robots.txt and page-level noindex tags are configured to reduce search engine indexing, but they are not access controls.
