When you’re building supports for individuals, it can feel like you have to figure everything out on your own—forms, systems, processes, onboarding, training, documentation. But the truth is, someone else has probably been there before.

And that’s the power of the Equip community: you’re not starting from scratch—and you’re not alone.

🧠 Learning from Each Other, Not Just the Software

Equip is more than a tool. It’s a growing network of thoughtful, mission-driven professionals who are building better systems—together. From day one, our team has been inspired by how Equip customers share ideas, strategies, and templates with one another to solve real problems faster.

• One organization repurposed a staff onboarding form they saw another organization using

• A transition program shared its residential living space assessment, helping a brand-new program get started

• A team leader revamped their assessment strategy after seeing how another group tracked skill-building

It’s not just product—it’s peer-powered progress.

💬 The Equip Community Group

Every Equip customer gets access to a private Community Group—a built-in space to ask questions, trade ideas, and connect with others doing similar work. It’s part of what makes onboarding smoother and long-term success more collaborative. What started as a space to connect with other spporters,has turned into a collaborative hub for growth. Within hours—sometimes minutes—answers, examples, and ideas roll in.

📁 A Template Library That Keeps Growing

The Equip Template Library isn’t static—it’s shaped by what real organizations are creating, testing, and improving. If you’re just getting started or want to level up a process, it’s packed with time-saving resources like:

• Skills assessments

• Incident reports

• SAP assessments

And if you’ve created something that works? You can share it back. Equip is built around the idea that we move faster and go further when we share what works.

🌟 Highlighting Our Community’s Generosity

Our team is constantly blown away by how open, thoughtful, and generous Equip users are—with their ideas, time, and encouragement.

This Community Spotlight is for every customer who:

• Took five minutes to answer a peer’s question

• Shared a helpful doc or link

• Asked something “small” that sparked a bigger solution

• Encouraged someone who was just starting out

When you join Equip, you’re not just getting a platform—you’re joining a community of organizations who are building better systems together. Curious what’s possible with Equip? The Community Group gives you access to ideas, templates, and proven strategies that make even your first month with Equip feel like a head start.
