The second goal of program referrals focuses on selecting the appropriate program referral.

• A. Identify WHEN to refer clients
• B. Identify WHICH program referral to make
• C. Ensure attendance to program referrals
• D. Correctly excusing program referrals

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is matching the client to the right intervention. The second goal of program referrals is about selecting which program referral to make—choosing the specific program that best fits the client’s needs, goals, readiness, and practical constraints (like eligibility, services offered, modality, location, and scheduling). This focus on fit helps ensure the referral is actually appropriate and has the best chance of engagement and positive outcomes. Timing when to refer is a different concern, attendance is about whether the client shows up, and excusing referrals isn’t a standard goal. By prioritizing the right program, you set up the client for meaningful progress.
