The individual needs to be able to clearly communicate the potential service response and process for any of the Agency’s umbrella of services as per each designated service eligibility. At times, the First-Contact Service Screener must meet face to face with potential service user and, therefore, may have to deal with service users who illustrate anger and have to be diffused.
