Greetings System Administrators and Implementation Leads,
Some of you may have heard the news that effective February 14, 2017 yours truly transferred into a new role with Transition Age Youth (TAY) Services. Consequently, my last official day as the CANS/ANSA Project Director is April 14, 2017. In my absence, Cheryl Narvaez (CANS/ANSA Coordinator) will be your primary contact person under the direction of Quality Management Director, Rudy Arrieta. Cheryl will oversee Objective Arts (OA) Onboarding including coordination of our local CANS/ANSA Provider Collaborative, BHCS Implementation Support, and Information Systems Teams.
Going forward, should you have questions about the CANS/ANSA tool or need help troubleshooting OA technology related questions, here’s a quick reference list on who you should contact:

Other final thoughts…
1. The CANS/ANSA
Provider Collaborative will be providing an ANSA Pre-Certification
Training workshop on Thursday, March 16th at 9am.
See Attached PDF.
2. The next phase of the
CANS/ANSA initiative will focus on sustainability and building internal agency
capacity. To guide this process, we put together a FAQ
- Contact Sheet and Decision Tree for System Administrators.
See Attached PDF.
3. We now have 62
organizations representing 505 unique programs across four systems of care
using CANS/ANSA tools. To date, 81% (50/62) of all county-operated and
community-based organizations have gone “Live” on OA. Only 12 more to go!
4. The OA Attestation
Deadline is Friday, 3/31/17, 5pm. Please check-in with your assigned
BHCS Implementation Support Liaison to confirm your proposed OA “Go-Live”
date.
It’s been a pleasure; thank you kindly for all of your hard work in making the CANS/ANSA Initiative a success!
