Summary:

At the heart of APS practice is person-centered intake, investigation, and service planning. To develop an appropriate service plan, we must have a clear sense of who is sitting before us – their community and support networks; what their needs, preferences, and access points are; and any potential barriers to care and services. This data then feeds into case management systems and onto the broader field through systems such as the National Adult Maltreatment Reporting System (NAMRS) to help inform practice, research, funding, etc. Join us as we unpack what goes into asking inclusive demographic questions – tips and best practices, training resources, and peer support.
