In April 1995, the Department distributed a survey to the Protective Services for Adults (PSA) staff of all social services districts to obtain their input regarding the establishment of a statewide automated system for adult services (see 95 LCM-45). The survey was developed by an intra-agency workgroup, the Adult Services Automation Project (ASAP), which was established to provide recommendations to the Department regarding an automated system for PSA. A primary objective of the ASAP workgroup and the survey is to ensure that if an automated data system is developed for PSA, it meets the program planning, management and service delivery needs of both the the Office of Housing and Adult Services (OHAS) and the local social services districts. The workgroup is especially concerned that an automated system be "user-friendly" and enable local staff to use their time more effectively and efficiently in providing services to their clients. This release contains the results of the ASAP survey.
