Family Connections is a powerful visual tree building tool used by social workers, CASA volunteers, and family recruiters to map the extended families and supporters of kids in foster care. Family Connections includes security options that allow disparate "teams" of users to work in concert on a need-to-know basis.ย
The Team Manager Role
Once approved for access, your team manager will receive an invite email from Connect Our Kids with a link to create their account. After completing the sign-up process (detailed below), your team manager, and any user with the "Manage list of users/roles" permission will have the ability to manage other team members who have been invited to the Family Connections tool. Only users invited as part of your team will have access to your team's data.ย
