Built on years of case management experience and field testing, the Core 4 model helps practitioners move beyond the binary \u201cpro-social\/anti-social\u201d lens and instead gain a nuanced, actionable understanding of the social networks that influence client behavior. This episode explores how the Core 4 tool bridges assessment and intervention\u2014serving as a roadmap for client-centered case planning and long-term behavioral change. \ud83c\udfaf Want to go deeper?
