Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.

Collaborative planning role

The Strengths Index is completed with client input during planning. The practitioner controls the official case record.

Structured, not scored

The result is a structured profile of relevant strengths. The tool does not score, rank, or interpret strengths automatically.

Changing context

Prior profiles can remain reviewable with their planning context so later changes do not erase earlier understanding.

Is the Strengths Index a generic strengths worksheet?

No. It is a PIE index for recording strengths relevant to the current service-planning context.

Can the client contribute to the Strengths Index?

Yes. The specified mode is ready to complete together, so the client contributes during collaborative planning.

Does the tool score or rank strengths?

No. It records and organizes strengths without unsupported scoring, ranking, or interpretation.

What if no strengths are identified yet?

The tool can show an explicit empty or incomplete state without implying that the client has no strengths.
