Homeless Survey Template: Rapid Rehousing

The Rapid Rehousing survey template helps organizations measure how well they are helping individuals experiencing homelessness quickly move into and stabilize in permanent housing with time-limited financial and case management support.

Rapid Rehousing is one of the most effective evidence-based interventions in the homelessness system. It operates on the principle that people experiencing homelessness can often achieve housing stability with the right combination of rapid placement, short-term financial assistance, and targeted case management. The goal is not just to place people in housing, but to help them build the capacity to maintain it.

This template captures participant feedback on the housing search process, the quality and responsiveness of case management, the adequacy of financial assistance provided, and the participant's confidence in their ability to sustain their housing after the program ends. It also measures whether the housing secured feels safe and appropriate.

Use this template to track housing stability outcomes, identify where participants may need additional support before or after housing placement, and demonstrate program effectiveness to funders. Rapid Rehousing's success depends on the quality of the relationship between participants and their case managersthis template helps you continuously improve that relationship and the outcomes it produces.
