The Case Manager's Field Guide: Resource & Co-Taught Settings — Free Preview

A complete sample from the full guide

This is a free preview of The Case Manager's Field Guide: Resource & Co-Taught Settings — the edition built for the case manager running a resource or co-taught caseload, where the work is measured against grade-level goals and the documentation has to hold up.

It's not a table of contents or a teaser. Inside this preview you get an entire step of the guide, complete and ready to use — the full first-contact-with-families sequence, with the scripts, the timelines, and the Illinois legal deadlines — plus a working sample of how the guide turns progress-monitoring data into defensible decisions.

In the preview:

• The complete opening step of the eight-step system — usable in your building today
• A sample of the progress-monitoring logic that separates real progress from noise
• A look at the transition layer that survives a compliance review
• A full map of what the complete guide covers, step by step

If it's useful, the full guide carries all eight steps, the complete progress-monitoring and forms suite, and the transition layer in full.

This guide is published in two editions: this one for the resource and co-taught setting, and a functional edition for the life-skills and functional classroom. If you teach in a functional or life-skills room, look for that edition instead — each is complete on its own.
