If a youth scores a level A on their admission CCAR, how will improvement in their mental health status be measured?
Although there is not a lower level possible on the CCAR, changes in mental health functioning can be measured using finer gradations on the domain scores. Accurate scoring of the CCAR at all times is critical to overall data collection and should not be compromised in order to demonstrate greater change due to placement or treatment.
