Electronic client referrals open great opportunities to connect and share information in an extended framework that empowers and builds capacity.
Our referral system allows for self-referrals directly to service providers and for a more accountable referral process between service providers across town or around the world. These electronic referrals are made possible by finding a qualified service provider in the resource directory, confirming hours of operation, requirements, etc. and clicking a button to make the referral. Once one or several service providers are located, maps can be printed, referrals made, acknowledgements received, and more.
A useful application such as electronic referrals will increase the use of the directory, build the directory, and keep information in the directory current and reliable. Thus, this cycle of use and growth creates momentum.
