The purpose of the Department's Peer Case Management Institute (PCMI) is to train individuals with lived experience of homelessness to serve as case managers at homeless services agencies that are providers in the District's Continuum of Care (CoC).
Individuals who successfully complete the PCMI will be eligible to receive a Department-issued Peer Case Manager Certification
A Department-funded CoC provider may substitute the Peer Case Manager Certification for the education and work requirements for the job that the Department requires the CoC agency to include for the job under the Department's contract with the CoC agency.
This chapter applies to individuals seeking a Peer Case Manager Certification, CoC providers who employ peer case managers, and the Department.
