FINALLY AN ASSESSMENT INSTRUMENT THAT IS ACCURATE, PREDICTIVE, & USEFUL IN PLANNING
The Brief Resiliency Checklist (BRC) is an assessment instrument that has been designed to document the
presence of all risk and protective factors within a given child or family.
| Accurate | – | The BRC produces a score that accurately identifies the existence of factors that determine the level of risk for poor life outcomes. |
| Predictive | – | The score produced by the BRC is predictive of outcomes in major life areas such as relationships, education, and vocation. |
| Planning | – | The BRC identifies existing strengths and required elements for effective education and treatment. |
VALIDATION
The BRC was tested on large high-risk cohorts and found to be:
- Accurate risk assessment determined by comparison of findings from complete battery of assessments
- Predictive of outcomes based on comparison of BRC profile to actual client outcomes documented in follow-up surveys
- Consistent in identifying treatment elements in plan that correlated to improved outcomes by comparing the occurrence of indicators to documented client outcomes
