Enrolled in in a Cohort
with Casebook Everything's Recorded
Lost Angels Career Center is a nonprofit organization based in Southern California that empowers disadvantaged youth and distressed communities through vocational training, social enterprise, and outreach programs. Known for its 100% job placement rate, Lost Angels equips participants with in-demand technical skills, paving the way to financial stability and sustainable employment.
With a growing demand for its programs and a commitment to scaling its services, Lost Angels Career Center needed a more efficient way to manage case records and track program outcomes. By adopting Casebook, the organization streamlined data collection and reporting, enabling it to expand its impact across Los Angeles.
Lost Angels relied on Google Docs and paper-based systems, which made managing case records and tracking participant outcomes time-consuming and error-prone. As demand for their programs surged, this outdated system hindered their ability to measure program success and scale operations efficiently.
Casebook provided Lost Angels with a configurable platform that centralized case management and enabled real-time reporting on participant outcomes and program spending. This streamlined approach saved significant time, improved record accuracy, and equipped the organization to expand services while maintaining high program effectiveness.
Before Casebook, it would take half an hour in Google Docs just to find the right record, and many times, it lacked all the specifics I needed. Honestly, it’s ridiculous to me to think of doing it without Casebook. I’ve become so dependent on it because it so easily tracks everything for me.

The healthy parenting program educates approximately 500 families a year. When it debuted in 2017, staff used seven Excel sheets per client to manage their progress, input demographic details, and maintain case notes and other records to ensure successful completion. Jenyne Carter, the program manager, quickly realized that with overseeing her staff (then a size of 12), endless paperwork, and thousands of manual entries required in its current record-keeping situation, the healthy parenting program’s management would become untenable as it grew. Jenyne recognized that technology designed for case management would be the best solution, and explored several options, ultimately determining Casebook would work best.
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.
The Alpha Omega team was relying on pen and paper to track their residents and growing client base – literally tracking everything from intake to outcomes with binders and filing cabinets split between the various locations they supported. As Alpha Omega’s client base and community needs began to grow, processes that relied on increasingly outdated technology began to fail.
