Many things might wildly affect your scores at this point: Bad or missing data in ARIES; Lack of consistency between agencies in how data is entered in ARIES. This is a baseline measurement and is intended for informational purposes. Comparisons between providers are not entirely possible because of limitations in data entry and differences in processes.
The following is the BVCOG Community Input Plan, revised and updated for 2008. Some of the input methods include use of a toll free number (866-841-7288), use of pre-site visit client satisfaction questionnaires, site visits with providers (including key informant interviews with staff and clients, and file reviews), electronic distribution of materials, and public hearings.
If you would like to join the distribution list for community input announcements, please email cmcelhaney@bvcog.org. This web site will host community input announcements and information out for comment.
