The new system features high-tech functionality to enhance the WIC staff and participant experience during a WIC appointment. New features include:
- Near paperless operation
- Internet access for all local agency staff
- Immediate participant transfer to and from Colorado clinics
- Electronic growth grids
- Greater access to agency data
Sandy Recla, Fort Collins WIC Clinic Manager said, “The growth grids are great. Parents seem to understand them better and it has been easier to get the parents to think about goals and commit to them.” She also listed scheduling appointments, the ability to assign a second endorser, and easy voucher printing as noticeable improvements from the current system.
With Compass rolled out across the state, the Colorado WIC Program is now working with other state WIC agencies to share information, best practices and lessons learned about the system for replication and implementation.
