The techniques, skills development, and methodologies infused into each training session have helped enrich staff’s understanding of the case management process. Specifically, the creation of meaningful Resource and Referral Guidelines will allow us to better assist all stakeholders served through our program. Moreover, the knowledge, confidence and courage gained will certainly help to empower all staff and clients receiving our services.”
