NEW! NC SOAR Caseworker Password-Protected Webpages

(Once you have received your password, you can view the pages after logging in to the site.) NEW! NC SOAR Caseworker Certification
NCCEH is interested in working with SOAR caseworkers to develop their skills and provide them with the recognition they deserve for their dedication to SOAR methods and for helping their clients access benefits. Individuals who complete the NC SOAR Caseworker Certification process will receive documentation that they are SOAR certified and will be added to the state list of SOAR caseworkers.
- Read the requirements for NC SOAR Caseworker Certification
- Complete the NC SOAR Caseworker Exam (required for Provisional Certification)
- Complete the NC SOAR Caseworker Evaluation and Assessment (required for Final Certification)
NEW! SOAR Screening Tools
With limited time and resources, it is important that SOAR caseworkers focus their efforts on helping those who are most clearly and obviously disabled. These 'who to help' decisions can often be difficult--here are some screening tools that can help. Use these to assess client disability and the likelihood of benefits acquisition.
