  • Generate Agency Datasheet: This button allows agencies to create a report that contains all contact, site, and office information currently in the CDMIS for the agency. If any of the information is not accurate, agencies can use the buttons in the Agency Name and Mailing Address section to update the information, as necessary.
  • Generate Certification Form: This button allows agencies to print a document that must be signed and returned along with the annual Continued Funding Application package. This form is not required to be submitted at any other time.
