D4I Technical Assistance on the Establishment of the Case Management Information System (CMIS) in ArmeniaDownload Document: Armenia-CMIS-Development-Brief-FS-23-635-D4I_508c.pdf (960 KB)Abstract: To foster improved services for children in difficult life situations, prevent unnecessary separation, and support early reunification with a focus on breaking the cycle of re-institutionalization, the social workforce needs routine and reliable data as well as tools to easily mobilize existing services. The case management information systems (CMIS) can help case workers operate more efficiently and effectively, providing them with reliable data on child-specific resources, services, needs, and wellbeing outcomes. The CMIS can also support effective referral systems and information sharing among provider agencies (e.g., day care centers, emergency shelters, schools, police, hospitals, courts, and social services), ensuring that children receive timely, coordinated services for the best outcomes. This brief summarizes the continuous efforts of D4I in promoting the establishment of an operational and multifunctional CMIS for the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs of Armenia (MOLSA) to collect, monitor, and report data on the situation of children in residential and family-based alternative care as well as those who may be at risk of violence, abuse, or neglect.Shortname: FS-23-635Author(s): Data for ImpactYear: 2023Language: EnglishRegion(s): ARMENIAFiled under: Armenia, Brief, CMIS, Routine data
