Module 51

Referral Form: Final Draft of January 5, 1996


 
Main Purpose The purpose of this module is to have a standardized way of tracking service referrals that are made to collateral and cooperating agencies.
Description
  • Checklist of types of referrals.
  • The draft shows each referral agency as generic; for example, "Agency 1," "Agency 2," etc. If projects wish they may type in the names of these agencies for their project. Obviously, this portion of the form will not be standardized across projects, but the EDC can track this for individual projects. The portion labeled "Referrals Made For" will be kept standard across all projects.
  • Completion time is 1-2 minutes.
Target Projects for Form
  • Any project documenting service linkages and referrals.
Major Evaluation Function
  • Characterize referral history of project clients.
  • Referrals and follow-through (documented by local evaluators) may be an important outcome for individual projects.
Comments
  • As noted above, individual projects may type in the name of local service agencies on the generic form. This would allow specific referrals to be tracked.
