Global Appraisal of Individual Needs - Short Screener (GAIN-SS)

The GAIN-SS is an evidence-based, 16-question survey developed by Chestnut Health Systems that identifies needs for further assessment in the areas of mental health, substance abuse, and anger management for adolescents and adults. This electronic tool is designed specifically for use by school-based, pupil services professionals and has been made available to Wisconsin schools through a cooperative effort of the Department of Public Instruction (DPI), Department of Health Services (DHS), and Wisconsin Family Ties. A webcast explaining how to administer this tool is available at http://media2.wi.gov/DPI/Viewer/?peid=c89b8bde-f715-4e90-ab0b-228515c53e83. Related documents can be found at the links below.
