What are data sharing platforms?
Data sharing platforms allow programs to securely share information, as well as store data in the cloud and across devices. These platforms are often easy to use and customizable, creating centralized locations for documents and efficiency when sending files.
Why are data sharing platforms important for legal services?
In 2019, the Michigan Advocacy Program (MAP) received a Technology Initiative Grant (TIG) from the Legal Services Corporation (LSC) to bring UX design and usability testing training to the justice community. After having struggled with these topics in the early days of Michigan Legal Help, and then learning how important they are, MAP wanted to help others in the community understand the basics of UX design and learn how easy usability testing can be.
What are case management systems (CMS)?
Case management systems allow legal aid programs to consolidate case and client information in a central and secure location. These types of software also manage client communication, accounting and billing, document assembly, compliance, etc., fostering more successful results and streamline workflow. CMS also provides added layers of up-to-date, compliant security for sensitive information.
