Exploring how Equip’s advancements shape a smarter, more empowered future.

Streamlining Goal Management & Organization

This month’s release focuses on making goal setup faster and more consistent—while giving you new ways to organize and track information across your organization.

💬 Copying Goals Setting up participant goals just got easier. With the new Copy Goals feature, you can quickly duplicate existing goals—saving time while ensuring consistency across individuals or groups. This is especially helpful for organizations where participants share similar objectives (like workplace readiness, independent living, or social skills).

• Streamline goal creation without retyping details.

• Customize each copied goal to stay person-centered.

• Maintain consistency while reducing admin work.

🏷️ Adding Tags Categories have always helped you keep things organized, but sometimes one label isn’t enough. That’s where Tags come in. Tags let you add more specific identifiers so you can group, filter, and run reports with greater precision.

• Add multiple tags to reflect real-world overlap

• Simplify audit prep and data analysis

• Gain insights by running reports filtered by tags

With these updates, your team can focus less on repetitive setup and more on what matters most: supporting growth and measuring meaningful outcomes.

Effective tools and insights to simplify your role and maximize impact.

Supporter Stories: Connected for Impact

One of our customers shared how Equip has transformed the way they coordinate support:

“Equip provides an opportunity for all aspects of our program to be connected. It has been a vital part of the scheduling process as well as tracking student progress. Being able to create events on both the program side and the student side has allowed students to gain more independence and manage their own schedules. Students have really embraced the application—and the collaboration and tech support provided by the Equip team is unmatched!”

Hearing how Equip streamlines scheduling, strengthens independence, and empowers students reminds us why simplification matters. Less time juggling systems means more time supporting growth.
