The Biopsychosocial Needs Assessment (BPS NA) is an assessment tool conducted by a licensed clinician to determine treatment needs and treatment planning for a range of mental health services provided to at-risk youth and their families. The assessment is completed within the home or community setting and considers the youth’s functioning across a variety of life domains. This assessment is necessary for children entering the Children’s System of Care and is one of the first steps in initiating services.
