Handel Vice President Selected to Present at the 2019 TribalNet Conference
/in Adoption, Adult Protective Services, Child Protective Services, Domestic Violence, Employment and Training, Enrollment, Foster Care, Indian Child Welfare, News, TANF Reporting, Tribal Court, Tribal Government, Tribal TANF, Tribal Treatment Services /by Tracey RosenlundHandel’s Vice President of Sales was selected to speak at the 20th Annual TribalNet Conference. This marks the third time Casey Bader has been chosen to facilitate workshops at TribalNet’s annual conference.
His session, “Tribal Member Services—Centralized Data Models,” will examine how to create a 360-degree view of tribal members and how to eliminate the siloed nature of data collection for grant, social, and member service programs. During this session, Casey will also explore how technology is leveraged to enable collaboration and reporting for grants and outcome tracking through The White Earth Nation Coordination, Assessment, Resource and Education (WE CARE) case management model. Through community outreach, White Earth Nation discovered that members were unaware of many programs and services offered and when they did access services were often confused and overwhelmed by the lack of collaboration between programs. WE CARE is operated through a care coordination database system that provides an efficient and effective way to link families to the services they need.


Casey Bader has presented at numerous conferences previously including:
• 2012, 2013 and 2019 TribalNet Conferences
• 2013, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019 National Indian Child Welfare Association (NICWA) National American Indian Conferences on Child Abuse and Neglect
• 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 National Indian and Native American Employment/Public Law 102-477 Training Conferences (NINAETC)
• 2018 National American Indian Court Judges Association National Tribal Judicial and Court Personnel Conference
• 2017 Mid-Western & Eastern Multi-Regional Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Employment and Training Conference
• 2015 National Tribal Child Support Association (NTCSA) Annual Training Conference
• 2012 and 2013 United South and Eastern Tribes (USET) Annual Meetings
• 2013 Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians (ATNI) Convention
Casey has over 15 years of experience identifying barriers to evaluating and implementing complex software solutions for social service organizations.

Case Study: Multi-County Juvenile Detention Center’s RiteTrack System (Recording)
/in Case Study, Juvenile Detention, Juvenile Facilities, Juvenile Justice, News /by Tracey RosenlundIf you couldn’t make it to the live presentation with the Superintendent and Assistant Superintendent of the Multi-County Juvenile Detention Facility, you can access a recording here.
In this recording you can listen and watch as Dana and Bret discuss their experiences with implementing and using RiteTrack as their case management and reporting database system.

They took questions and answers from attendees and discussed the return on investment (ROI) from implementing a web-based system. They found ROI specifically because the functionality is designed for juvenile detention and has reduced time spent tracking clients and cases on paper. It nearly eliminated the use of paper and cut the cost significantly.
Register and watch the webcast to find out how much they saved on cutting the cost of paper alone!
RiteTrack improves facility operations and reduces costs. Watch this firsthand testimonial explaining how one facility achieved this.
