Goal of Students Served
The Book Works is a Louisville, Kentucky nonprofit organization that advocates for equitable access to education and employment for young people who are at risk of becoming disconnected because of educational disruptions, childhood trauma, social or racial discrimination, or economic hardship.
The Book Works Executive Director Elizabeth Senn- Alvey leads a team of seven who were spending hours searching for critical information because the organization did not have a formal record- keeping system in place. Elizabeth realized that the organization could help more students with greater efficiency and data security with new record-keeping tools and processes. That’s when The Book Works realized they needed to integrate a technology platform to help keep the team organized, maintain critical details about learners’ needs and progress, and analyze and prove their success.
In order to collect critical data and connect student cases, programs, volunteers, and partner organizations, The Book Works evaluated technology providers and selected Casebook PBC because of its customizable approach that centralizes data with an accessible software solution.
With the help of Casebook’s customer success team, the agency quickly onboarded, setting up the appropriate fields and reports to help them track success, both for individual cases and for their program as a whole. In addition, data privacy for students is a top concern, and Casebook’s level of security provided the organization with a technology tool to protect the information.
Student engagement is at the center of everything we do - and with better access to data that shows us and our partners the impact we’re making, we can help even more young people. Casebook is invaluable to our organization as we continue growing and looking for additional ways to fund the programs that we know are making a difference in Louisville.

Problem:
In order to collect critical data and connect student cases, programs, volunteers, and partner organizations, The Book Works evaluated technology providers and selected Casebook PBC because of its customizable approach that centralizes data with an accessible software solution.
Solution:
The Book Works, relying on reliable data stored in Casebook’s solution, has obtained new and increased funding to support their work.
Using data to drive decisions, the organization has grown strategically and continues to expand its footprint to serve more learners in need.
The Social Work Program Doubled Its Reported Data, Increased Its Caseload, and Improved Community Trust with Casebook.
The Community Unit of Easton Police Department (PD) in Easton, Pennsylvania, successfully adopted Casebook’s case management software to address some of its most significant issues, including reporting, collaboration, and community trust.
For many years, the organization relied on manual and very time-consuming tasks for record-keeping, using multiple Excel spreadsheets to capture important client and program effectiveness data. Because data was housed in many places, it was difficult to compile reports and audits in a timely fashion.
