Supplemental POM Materials Are Now Available In Spanish

The Personal Outcome Measures® (POM) is a person-centered discovery process, exploring the presence, importance, and achievement of outcomes, along with the supports that help people achieve those outcomes. The Personal Outcome Measures® tool includes 21 indicators, which are organized under 5 factors, to better understand the desired outcomes of people receiving services.

There are numerous materials and guides that assist those using the POM discovery process in better understanding the tool and conducting interviews.
