Centralizing placement communications into one system allows robust tracking of outreach efforts and reduces time to placement. Knowing this, one of our first priorities was developing a outreach platform to contact caregivers via email regarding the placement of a child. Today, we're releasing a serious upgrade!

Now, when conducting outreach to caregivers about a potential placement, you can send an SMS in addition to email. Making things even better, the email and SMS are both fully customizable! All communications continue to be automatically saved in the Call Log for the caregiver.

Check it out today by visiting the View Matching Families page and selecting 'Send Availability Message' for a family.

The Child Requirements page in our Caregiver Management module has been completely redesigned based on your feedback!

• Requirements are now automatically sorted across six tabs: All, Overdue, Due Next 30 Days, Due More Than 30 Days, Waived, and Completed. This keeps your dashboard looking much cleaner and easier to understand.
• We've added a search functionality for when you're looking for something specific.
• A new date filter lets you narrow down the range of requirements you're viewing.
• A 'Waive' button allows you to override requirements.

Try it out today by navigating to the Children/Youth Page and selecting Actions > Child Requirements for a child in care.

Tracking the status of household members is critical to ensuring the correct information is collected during initial application and renewal cycles. We've added the ability to track additional information about Other Adults in the home:

• Add specific move-in/move-out dates
• Indicate date of birth for adult household members
• A history of household members is maintained on the Applicant Data page.
• A new page during the Intake process collects information about Other Adults.

Check it out today when you use Intake Family or visit the Applicant Data page for a caregiver!

We now allow tags (aka a ‘label’) to be configured and assigned to families in Binti. Once tags are assigned, you are able to filter reports and dashboards. They also appear on the downloadable CSV. Tagging is designed to be a flexible way to group families. Below are some example use-cases that are possible with tagging:

• Filter dashboards and reports for families in specific offices or regions
• Filter dashboards and reports for families in specific programs (therapeutic, etc.)
• Filter dashboards and reports for families recruited through a specific channels or recruitment tactic

Once configured, tags can be added via the Intake Family and Edit Application pages.

Connect with your Customer Success Manager today to add tags for your agency! We will bulk assign tags to your existing families to help get you started.
