Measures
The assessment measures will be administered to all children receiving mental health services with the exception of inpatient services. For an overview of the measure selection process, see the DHCS Information Notice (PDF).
CYF mHOMS Measures Manual
The assessments for the Children, Youth & Families Behavioral Health Services (CYFBHS) System of Care Evaluation (SOCE) include:
- San Diego Child & Adolescent Needs & Strengths (SD-CANS), completed by the clinician for youth ages 6–21. This measure is administered at Intake, UM/UR or 6 months (whichever comes first), and Discharge.

Log in to CYF mHOMS Data Entry System
After administering the assessments, each agency will enter their own data into the web-based CYF mHOMS Data Entry System (DES). This allows every agency to keep the original copies of the completed measures and to have full access to the response data from their clients for client level analysis and program level analysis. It is important that the data is entered into the CYF mHOMS DES in a timely manner.
