Collaborative Capacity Instruments

The Collaborative Capacity Instrument is a tool intended to be used as a self-assessment by alcohol and other drug (AOD) service and child welfare service (CWS) agencies and dependency courts who are preparing to work with each other or who may be seeking to move to a new level of cooperation after some initial efforts. The questions have been designed to elicit discussion among and within both sets of agencies and the court about their readiness for closer work with each other.

There are two versions, one for persons working at the statewide level, the other for those at the local level.
