The therapy pamphlets are developed for use by professional therapists. The goal of using pamphlets is to demystify the therapy process by providing information needed by clients and to assist the therapist with communicating administrative information. If the client has a concrete document with all relevant processes, he/she may be less likely to prematurely terminate the sessions or to cancel sessions without proper notification.

There are pamphlets on 3 topics available:
• Child / adolescent therapy
• Marital therapy & divorce counselling
• Spiritual therapy

All the pamphlets obtain information on the following:
• A short background and definition on the type of therapy
• How therapy will benefit the person and family
• Warning signs
• Advice on what to do during therapy
• When and how to terminate
• Administrative aspects & details of the therapists

The use of these pamphlets assists with marketing and referral as well.

Any professional working with problems or projects knows the value of proper planning. The Goal Attainment Task Completion Scale (GATCS) is a simple yet ingenious way of setting treatment goals and measuring progress over a number of weeks.
The single-subject design gives the therapist who uses social work measurement a tool with which to visually demonstrate the client’s progress and to work out if the change in the client is statistically significant, in other words whether the change was the direct result of the therapist’s intervention.  

A user-friendly GATCS & Single-subject design excel-based programme has been designed to enable a password-protected platform for client measurement data. 

The development of a Practice Model is specific to the nature and needs of an organisation that provides a service to clients. Previous examples of developing a practice model for an organisation involved the development of a screening protocol for a residential care centre that linked to evidence-based measurement and targeted training programmes, and a large national welfare organisation with 48 social service practitioners working across provincial offices needing a road map to move from a welfare to social development approach to service delivery. The latter involved a two-phased process, starting with the management team and then extending to a hands-on demonstration to workers. Not only was there a focus on assisting the shift to individual-based service delivery to project-based community services, but also on providing relevant tools and techniques to assist the case manager to provide evidence of the impact of their service-delivery.

The ChildPIE© is a classification system for the the measurement of childhood social functioning, the outcome of a doctoral study. Measures to ensure validity of the instrument were: (1) clear guidelines for gathering and organising literature delineating the scope of practice of social service practitioners; (2) progressive steps to identify indicators of the presence of social functioning problems; (3) guidelines were followed regarding the format of the classification system with consideration of requirements for a measurement tool; (4) feedback from practitioners was gathered throughout the developmental process and tested statistically through inter-rater reliability measures. Five years after its initial development and testing, the instrument was implemented for further testing by 25 social service practitioners working at a child and youth care centre in another province. The training and assignments carried 8 continuous professional points with the professional council and in 2011 findings on the ChildPIE studies were published in a South African journal. 

Benefits of adoption to the sector:
■ The practitioner can clarify the child’s unique problems and prioritise them with regard to their intensity and importance.
■ It helps the worker to rely less on abstractions as the use of the ChildPIE© gives her an objective tool to measure her own assumptions against.
■ Having to select a suitable category allows for deeper analysis than simply what is most obvious, making assessments more objective
■ Representation through numerical values assists with monthly statistics and reporting and to quantify caseloads empirically.
■ Streamlining the referral process through a framework that can be used to screen which children will benefit most from involvement in programmes. ■ Allowing for the to identification of the coping skills of the child allows for a strength-based approach to assessment
