Popular Features for Child Welfare

Caseworkers and social workers are equipped with the tools they need to support their work.

Document Management

Scan, upload, and capture documents and other case content — audio, video, or photos — to the electronic case file. Quickly find and filter case content by date or content type, or by using full text search. Text on content items can be redacted and documents and forms can be routed within the agency.

Forms Management

Work with clients and supervisors to complete forms electronically, which can be an exact match of the original forms provided by hospitals, schools, and other services providers. Traverse features autofill and autosave and always has the most recent version. Caseworkers can digitally share forms for review or a signature.

Mobile

Regardless of location or connectivity, workers use the Traverse mobile app to complete electronic forms, automatically scan, auto-crop, and classify documents. Workers can enter case notes and narratives, take photos automatically tagged with the date and time of clients or living conditions, and capture audio and video.

Case Discovery

Traverse’s case discovery feature uses natural language processing and machine learning to read and analyze the entire case file, including transcribed audio and video files, like a human would. It presents major life events, people mentions and connections, and critical concepts related to drugs, risk factors, and protective factors.

Staff Management

Supervisors and administrators (with proper permissions) can see worker activity in real time to provide oversight or help when a worker is out of the office.

Reports

Through Traverse® Reports, unlock data to help with compliance and other reporting needs. No manual effort or separate spreadsheets are required to access key insights about clients, cases, and staff.

Integration

Traverse easily integrates with state case management systems such as a Comprehensive Child Welfare Information System (CCWIS) through an integration platform as a service (iPass), leveraging connectors and APIs. Traverse allows for bi-directional data exchange to reduce duplicate entry.
