Filtering Connect Form
You can apply filters to the Need Connect Form URL. Then, when someone accesses the form, you can direct them to a specific portion of the form or hide part of the form. For example, might filter the form to hide the "I CAN Help" portion if you plan to only assign internal staff to complete needs. That way, people outside of your staff can't request to be providers.
