Upper Bound: Reimagining Social Work with Transform
The weight of social work shouldn’t be carried by the systems meant to support it.
For too long, social service agencies have been forced to choose between serving their community and battling outdated, "antagonistic" software. This disconnection leads to frontline burnout, funding gaps, and the accidental retraumatization of the very people we seek to protect.
Join us for an exploration of Transform—a platform born in the "lab" of IslamicFamily and designed by those with lived experience in the sector. We’re moving past "extracting" data to a future of honoring stories.
Who is this for?
This session is designed for the visionaries steering the future of social services in Alberta:
Innovation Leads: Anyone interested in how AI can be deployed ethically and compassionately in "high-stakes" human environments.
Executive Directors & Managers: Leaders looking to eliminate staff burnout, manage organizational capacity, and gain a real-time "bird’s eye view" of health and impact.
Funders & Philanthropists: Visionaries seeking a new standard for "Funder-Ready Reporting" that transforms raw data into compelling, human-centered stories.
Government & Policy Stakeholders: Decision-makers who need actionable, aggregated data to identify service gaps and address systemic inequities without compromising client privacy.
What You’ll Discover:
The Data Charter: Why we believe in "Non-Extractive Technology" that prioritizes client dignity and trauma-informed design.
AI with a Pulse: A look at how AI can break language barriers, suggest life-saving resources, and digest years of complex case history in seconds.
From Paperwork to Purpose: How automated reporting and live impact dashboards can save your team 20+ hours a week, shifting the focus from "cases" back to "people."
Funder-Ready Insights: How to turn raw data into the compelling impact stories required to secure and sustain your mission.
Stop managing crises and start empowering change. Whether you are an Executive Director looking to reduce staff turnover or a funder seeking clearer outcomes, this session will show you how technology can finally have a heart.
