Record a life skills assessment

The life skills assessment is generally used to record the results of the Ansell Casey Life Skills Assessment (ACLSA) for a youth that is at least 14 years old. If the ACLSA is not an appropriate assessment for a particular youth, another assessment can be utilized and documented within TFACTS.

See www.caseylifeskills.org for more details about the Ansell Casey assessment.
