Adding a New Family to ChildPlus

You can use Application Express to quickly add new families to ChildPlus. Follow these steps to add a new family:

1. Click . Show me.
2. Complete each of the fields for the applicant. What if I want to add a family member who is not an applicant first? You can change the type of family member you want to add by making a different selection in the Adult or Child and/or Applicant fields.
3. To add another family member, click the Add Member drop-down and choose the type of family member you want to add.
   

To speed up the initial application process, you can just enter the primary adult and applicant.  You can always go back and add additional family members at a later time.

4. Complete the Family Information section of the screen. You'll provide details about the family's address, phone number(s), Parental Status, Relationship to Participants and their primary language at home in this section of the Add New Family screen.
5. Complete the Family Income section of the screen. In this section, you'll provide details about each of the family's income sources.
   

If you still want to record income for the entire family, instead of by family member, simply leave the family member field blank.

6. Type the name of the first emergency contact for the family in the Add Emergency Contact box and complete their information. Repeat this step for each of the family's emergency contacts.
7. Use the Enrollment section of the screen to create a participation record for the participant.
   

If you don't want to enter this information on the Add New Family screen, you can add it via the Enrollment module or Entry Express - Enrollment at a later time.

8. Use the Immunizations section of the screen to add the participant's immunizations information.
   

If you don't want to enter this information on the Add New Family screen, you can add it via the Immunizations module at a later time.

9. Click either Save and Add Another to save the current application and add another one or Save and Close to save the family's application.
