Level of service intensity determination in children’s mental health is an important process that has long required a more objective and systematic approach. It has always been fraught with disagreement across clinicians and care managers given the multiple factors that need to be considered in arriving at its determination, such as dangerousness, stability of the child's holding environment, and level of function. In this Workshop, participants learn about the actual use of the instrument while using the CASII Training Manual and are provided with the latest updates and changes on the instrument.
