Screener Timeliness
The following graphs report by cohort year and quarter on the percent of clients who received an on-time screener (within 10 business days of referral). Each point on the graph indicates the percent of persons in a given quarter who received an on-time screener.
Note that there may be fewer cohort years represented than exist in the date, as this report does not display any information calculated off of groups of clients smaller than 10. While there are clients being served in these cohorts, those reports are suppressed.

By Quarter, Contrasting Year
Full Assessment Timeliness
The following graphs report by cohort year and quarter on the percent of clients who received an on-time assessment (within 30 days of the last initial screener). Each point on the graph indicates the percent of persons in a given quarter who received an on-time full assessment at entry.
Note that there may be fewer cohort years represented than exist in the date, as this report does not display any information calculated off of groups of clients smaller than 10. While there are clients being served in these cohorts, those reports are suppressed.
By Quarter
Full Assessment Timeliness by Enrollment Date
The following graphs report by cohort year and quarter on the percent of clients who received an on-time assessment (within 30 days of the recorded enrollment date).
Only clients with an available, valid enrollment date are included in the calculations displayed.
Each point on the graph indicates the percent of persons in a given quarter who received an on-time full assessment at entry.
Note that there may be fewer cohort years represented than exist in the date, as this report does not display any information calculated off of groups of clients smaller than 10. While there are clients being served in these cohorts, those reports are suppressed.
By Quarter
Cross System Involvement at Entry
The following charts detail the percent of screener assessments that belong to clients who entered services in the given year. The last initial screener from each client episode was used to determine the client’s cross-system involvements for said episode. The sum of percentages may exceed 100 percent, as clients may be involved with multiple systems at entry into services.
Note that there may be fewer cohort years represented than exist in the data, as this report does not display any information calculated off of groups of clients smaller than 10. While there are clients being served in these cohorts, those reports are suppressed.

Referral Source at Entry
The following charts details for each cohort year the percent and number of screener assessments that belong to clients who were referred from the indicated cross-system sources. The last initial screener from each client episode was used, to indicate one referral source per episode.
Note that there may be fewer cohort years represented than exist in the data, as this report does not display any information calculated off of groups of clients smaller than 10. While there are clients being served in these cohorts, those reports are suppressed.
Note that clients who did not have referral source information recorded in their most recent screener are excluded from these calculations.
2015
A graph cannot be generated, because in the given year fewer than ten persons were enrolled who had an identified referral source.

Treatment Needs at Entry
The graphs below report point-in-time (at Initial assessment) and comparison-across-time (between Initial and reassessment) percentages of clients experiencing particular actionable needs (items rated as a ‘2’ or ‘3’) on the CANS B-5.
These calculations are based off of the Treatment needs at entry are identified among items in the “Behavioral/Emotional Needs”, “Life Functioning”, and “Risk Behavior” domains. The figure below identifies the top six actionable needs at initial intake in the Behavioral and Emotional Needs and Risk Factors Domain AND the top four actionable needs at initial intake in the Life Domain Functioning. If there is a tie between two top six/top four treatment needs in these domains, both items are included in the figure, which sometimes causes than ten items to be displayed. If applicable, the figure shows what percentage of clients continue to have actionable needs on these same items as of a later reassessment.
Note that there may be fewer assessment periods represented in this series of graphs than just above. This is a consequence of the fact that this report does not display any information calculated off of groups of clients smaller than 10. While there are clients being served at these later periods, those reports are suppressed.
