Three layers, one record
A practical structure that can be implemented across residential programs without losing nuance or resident voice.
Layer one
Resident reporting and intake
Accessible reporting channels, trauma informed intake, and clear expectations about what happens after a concern is raised.
Layer two
Program review and verification
Structured review of policies, staffing, physical environment, and prior incidents, with findings documented in a shared record.
Layer three
Coalition decision and follow up
Coalition members determine required actions, timelines, and follow up reviews, with residents informed of outcomes in plain language.
Data and governance spine
CRAS operates on a shared data model that connects incidents, program reviews, and standards. This lets the coalition see where harm is recurring and where interventions are working.
Governance is documented in a charter that defines roles, voting structures, and conflict of interest rules for all coalition participants.
