Please explain how you will evaluate your work.
Every client will participate in a collaborative process with their therapist to establish appropriate service treatment goals that will be reviewed as a means of tracking progress. Overall outcomes and program success will be determined by the use of a quarterly summary of client progress toward treatment goals, administration of evidence-based practice tools adhering to program fidelity, client feedback and satisfaction forms, child abuse reports, teacher and parent feedback. Therapists will monitor each participant’s progress towards established treatment goals and capture anecdotal data on services provided.
Attendance at events, classes, and program activities will also be tracked.
