Avoid Other as a Destination
Use of Other as a Destination is HIGHLY discouraged.
It has a significant negative impact on federal reports (SPM, LSA), and contributes to an inability to evaluate client or program outcomes, and help your community learn which interventions are more successful in different client situations.
Other selections with a specified Destination should be updated to the value from the list provided that best fits their situation (exact match is NOT necessary, just the closest approximation)
