Sources of La Fete Survey, YSS-F (Youth <strong>Services</strong> Survey for Families)<br />
Information: Telesage Outcome Measurement System (TOMS) (System Pending)<br />
Special Issues: The LaFete survey team was discontinued in FY 2010 in favor of use of the TOMS for reporting these<br />
data. The LaFete survey will continue to be used as an instrument in the Telesage Outcome<br />
Measurement System (TOMS). However, the TOMS was not implemented until August 2010 and will<br />
be reported in 2011.<br />
Significance: Measuring the number of children and youth with an emotional or behavioral disorder who experience<br />
good social connectedness will be an important indicator of the prognosis for recovery.<br />
Action Plan: See special issues. The <strong>Block</strong> <strong>Grant</strong> indicators are monitored through the Committee on Programs and<br />
<strong>Services</strong> of the Louisiana <strong>Mental</strong> <strong>Health</strong> Planning Council. The Planning Council Committee on<br />
Programs and <strong>Services</strong> is responsible for monitoring and evaluation of the mental health system and for<br />
recommending service system improvements to the Council.<br />
