We enjoy Apricot360 and how it empowers our case managers!

We use Apricot as our case management and data/impact tracking software. We started scoping the project in December 2020. We vetted nine vendors and selected and executed a contract with Social Solutions Apricot360 in April 2021. We have completed discovery, scope, and configuration, testing, and implementation. With the implementation of this software, we will be able to increase the reach, growth, and depth of our program impact. Case studies from Apricot360 have shown the ROI of this project will dramatically increase productivity and growth. We functioned for 5 years with a siloed, manual organizational tool that has caused our program implementation to be fractured, tedious, and dependent upon manual and dual reporting. Apricot360 streamlined processes, automated workflows, increase data integrity, security, and compliance, and allows us to easily pull reports and track research outcomes. This has enabled us to build stronger and more meaningful connections with the foster care community. It will also allow us to expand our reach and serve more youth and families without compromising the strength of the relationships fostered by our programs.

We operate the same two programs in 21 sites across the country- and counting! We needed software that is as scalable as we are. Apricot360 has allowed us to be able to buy a "hotel" with one main customizable blueprint and then make local "floor level" changes as needed. This empowers our leadership team to have oversight as well as empower our local chapters. Our core programs are highly adaptable to serve in urban, rural & suburban areas, tailoring to different socio-economic & cultural backgrounds, in order to meet the real needs of individual fostering family units. The software will provide a standard case management process that can be customized to accommodate diversity.

We have not been using Aprioct360 for a full year, however, we have already begun to build custom reports for key stakeholders, impact reports, and grants. We are able to provide accurate and verified quantitative numbers in a timely and consistent manner to the National Network for insights, analytics, impact, and stewardship leveraging. Our goal is to be able to decrease the turnaround time for the impact to be collected at the local level and have “real-time” numbers as accurate as possible.
