Out-of-County Shelter or Housing Placement In many New Mexico counties, the nearest practical shelter or transitional housing option may be in a larger city outside the person’s current county.

Out-of-county path Regional access Approval may apply
Before moving Confirm whether out-of-county placement is allowed, whether supervision can transfer or authorize travel, and whether reporting can continue. Do not assume a regional shelter placement automatically satisfies supervision rules.
