The Executive Office of Health and Human Services (EOHHS) has procured a vendor to update the online application for the Child/Adolescent Needs and Strengths (CANS) Assessment. Starting in early calendar year 2026, the CANS assessment will be moved to the eCAS platform. To start this migration, all providers who see youth under the age of 21 for behavioral health services and complete the CANS assessment are invited to a general kick off on 8/19/2025 at noon. Attendees should be those with knowledge of current systems and oversight of the use of the CANS. This meeting will also discuss Electronic Health Record (EHR) integration and should be attended by those who are connected to the current HL7 process for uploading CANS to the Virtual Gateway or those interested in that process.
The meeting will be held by Zoom. Please register here to join:
