Description of Measure

The collateral's recall of the subject's participation in both residential and outpatient social services is assessed through a modified version of the Child and Adolescent Services Assessment (CASA; Burns, et al., 1992). Collateral participants are asked if the subject has received services in a range of settings over the past year (e.g., alcohol/drug treatment, psychiatric treatment, hospitalizations, foster care, family counseling, detention/prison/jail stays, & priest/minister/clergy visitations) across both the juvenile justice and the mental health sector. The collateral also reports on whether the subject has taken any medication over the past year.
