Turning Local Referrals into System Intelligence
Frontline is more than a referral system. It is a shared intelligence platform revealing, in real time, how people seek help, where unmet need exists, and how systems perform across locations.
Every warm referral tells a story, and together these stories form a dynamic map of community needs.
