The I & R service uses a classification system based on standard service terminology to facilitate retrieval of service information, to increase the reliability of planning data, to make comparison and evaluation process consistent and reliable, and to facilitate national comparisons of data.

 

The I & R service uses the AIRS taxonomy service classification system. Taxonomy is a classification system that indexes community resources based on the services they provide and the target populations they serve. It provides a structure for information and tells people what is in the information system and how to find it.

 

Taxonomy additions will be updated and integrated into the I & R database as they occur. A complete review and update of the Resource-LINK version Taxomony will be conducted at least once every 18 months.
