In communities across the country, Padmission Connect is helping housing programs put choice back into the hands of the people they serve. With the Map Search feature, participants and their case managers can work together—within one secure platform—to find housing that truly fits their needs, supports, and goals.
This isn’t just about finding an available unit. It’s about finding the right home in the right place, faster and with less frustration.
Search by What Matters Most
Everyone’s definition of “home” is different. Padmission Connect’s Map Search gives participants the flexibility to explore housing opportunities near the things that matter most—whether that’s community supports, family, employment, or healthcare providers.
Using the interactive map, participants and their case managers can:
- Search by location to find homes near social and community supports.
- Stay connected to work, schools, and healthcare providers to maintain stability.
- Explore new neighborhoods that offer safer environments, better schools, and access to quality food and amenities.
By expanding access across zip codes, communities can help families and individuals make more empowered, informed housing choices that support long-term success.
Relevant Listings, Every Time
No more confusion or wasted time searching listings that don’t apply.
Padmission Connect automatically filters properties based on:
-
Subsidy/voucher and unit size
-
Program enrollment, whether PSH, RRH, SSVF, or others
-
Geographical boundaries associated with project funding
-
Budget parameters set with a supportive service provider
Participants see only the units that are a real match—simplifying the search and making every option meaningful.
Collaborative Housing Search, Simplified
Padmission Connect transforms the housing search into a shared experience. Case managers and participants can coordinate directly in the platform—no more endless calls or text threads.
Participants can:
-
Save and send listings to their case manager.
-
Communicate with property managers directly (if enabled).
-
Search independently, anytime, from their phone or computer.
Each community can configure communication and inquiry settings to match their local workflow:
-
Allowing participants to send properties to their case manager for review
-
Enabling direct communication between participants and property managers
-
Limiting inquiries to Housing Locator staff when appropriate
This flexible configuration means each CoC or agency can design a process that balances empowerment, oversight, and efficiency.
A True Reflection of Housing First Principles
At its core, Padmission Connect’s Map Search supports Housing First principles by removing barriers and centering participant choice.
When people can independently explore options, coordinate with their support team, and act quickly on available opportunities, housing placements happen faster—and with greater dignity.
That means:
- Quicker resolution of homelessness
- Less trauma during the housing process
- Higher stabilization outcomes as individuals move into homes that fit their lives and goals
By empowering both clients and case managers, Padmission Connect helps communities honor the belief that everyone deserves a real choice in where they live.
Technology That Moves People Home, Faster
Padmission Connect’s Map Search isn’t just a tool—it’s a bridge between people, programs, and properties. By combining housing data, participant engagement, and configurable communication options, communities can make housing navigation more efficient and humane.
Every search, every connection, every home found is a step toward ending homelessness—one choice at a time.
