{"report_id":288,"form_id":"22","user_id":81,"organization_id":13,"question_id":"359","question_type":"Free_Text","text_answer":"When information is accessible and shared amongst all county and tribal jurisdictions, local agencies can make more informed decisions, as the knowledge of prior work completed with children\/families is requisite.  Statewide policy or practice guidance is absent regarding how local agencies document work that is completed using contracted providers, who complete services and programs with children and families. Some agencies upload contract provider work with children in families by opening a workgroup in SSIS, while other agencies may not document contract providers' work at all. The absence of guidance surfaced during this review and mapping team discussed there is inconsistency in how each local agency documents contracted work, by non-government service providers. Contracted programs\/services, such as Project child in this case or contracted PSOP work, were examples the mapping team voiced that surface most often as being absent in documentation in SSIS. There is an impact on trajectory of case practice with children\/families because of the absent guidance for local expectation of local agency practice when to document contracted provider work with children and families and when to not.  When there is no documented contracted service work accessible, child welfare and other social services work is not supported adequately.","created_by":81,"updated_by":81,"updated_at":"5\/26\/2021 11:31:24 am","created_at":"5\/26\/2021 11:31:24 am","id":30285}
