Benchmarks standardize how SWAN units of service are completed. They ensure consistency in the delivery of service and establish standards for services. The benchmarks also serve as a training tool for supervisors as they educate workers on how to perform SWAN work. The benchmarks are used to define and measure outcome achievement. All SWAN affiliates must use the benchmarks. In order to receive payment, the affiliate must submit benchmarks indicating which activity steps were completed and why certain benchmarks may not have been completed. This section contains the revised benchmarks and all associated forms for the SWAN units of service.
