“The training had a positive impact on our agency. We don’t have a formal training internally so the case management training is a tool for us to send brand new staff and staff we want to promote. Many of our case managers have the compassion for the type of work that we do but need the technical skills to be better at their jobs; this training gives them the technical skills of case management.” – Kim Sather, Division Manager, Compass Center
