Social Condition Matrix

The Social Condition Matrix system is an Excel-based system designed to help programs evaluate changes in the condition and functioning of client families. The strength-based system, based on advocate or case manager observation, tracks a family's status in twelve functional areas over time.

Income & Budget squarebullet: Employment squarebullet: Housing squarebullet: Food/Nutrition

Health Care squarebullet: Transportation squarebullet: Adult Education squarebullet: Family Relations

Community Involvement squarebullet: Child Care squarebullet: Condition of Children squarebullet: Alcohol/Drugs

By evaluating families holistically, rather than only their negative or problem areas, case planning can build upon family strengths which improves long term outcomes.

The Social Condition Matrix is designed for both front-line and administrative staff. Advocates are able to easily document changes over time in each client family and Program Managers are able to easily supervise the program's total caseload.
