The relationship between the Program Management Module (PMM) and Nonprofit Cloud Case Management (NCCM) is one of "broad service tracking" meeting "individualized care." While PMM provides the framework for what services an organization offers, NCCM provides the specific tools for caseworkers to manage a participant's journey.
Two objects serve as the primary "connectors" between these two modules:
Program (C): In PMM, the Program object defines the high-level initiative (e.g., "Housing First"). In Case Management, the Case Plan is often directly linked to a Program. When a caseworker creates a Case Plan for a client, they select the Program that the plan supports. This ensures that the individual's goals and action items are contextualized within the organization's broader mission.
Service Delivery (A): This is the functional link. PMM uses Service Deliveries to track when a service was provided. In NCCM, when a caseworker fulfills an Action Item that involves providing a specific service (like a "Counseling Session"), the system can automatically generate a Service Delivery record. This allows the organization to see how specific case-managed activities contribute to overall program outputs.
Why other options are incorrect:
Case (Option B): While NCCM uses the standard Salesforce Case object, it is a base platform object. The specific PMM objects are designed to link to the program-centric logic, not just the generic case container.
Client Alert (Option D): This is a specific feature of Case Management used to flag sensitive information (e.g., "Allergy" or "Safety Risk") on a contact record, but it does not have a direct architectural relationship with the PMM objects like Programs or Service Deliveries do.
