How Search and Ask work
How answers are created
- We search only CAMFT’s own library. Your question is matched against CAMFT’s pages, PDFs, and CE courses, nothing from the open web.
- We pull the most relevant passages. The system selects the specific sections that actually address your question.
- The AI writes a short answer from those passages only. It is instructed to use nothing but the CAMFT sources provided, and to say so when the library does not cover something.
- Every answer is cited. Numbered links take you to the exact source and page, so you can verify and read the original.
Answers are informational and drawn from CAMFT resources. They are not legal advice, and may not reflect the most recent changes. Always open the cited source, and contact CAMFT staff attorneys for guidance on your specific situation.
Finds and opens documents. Type a few keywords or a phrase, and we list the matching PDFs, pages, and courses so you can open the source. This is a deep search: it reads inside every PDF, so a result can take you straight to the passage where the answer lives, not just the file.
Wrap words in double quotes to require them together, in that order. Searching “informed consent” returns only documents that contain that exact phrase, a fast way to narrow a broad topic to the passages using your precise wording. Anything outside the quotes still searches normally.
Gives a short, written answer. Ask a full question the way you would ask a colleague. We read the most relevant CAMFT sources and write a brief, cited answer with links. Use it when you want a quick answer plus the sources behind it. Informational only, not legal advice.
Relevance lists the best matches first. Most recent keeps the most relevant results on top and orders those by date, so where documents carry a date (legislative and BBS updates, CE events, The Therapist articles) you see the newest first. This is a new feature we’re still refining, so on some topics an older but highly relevant document may still lead.
Each result is rated on how closely it matched your search, compared with the top result: a label (Strong, Good, or Fair) and a heat bar that runs cool blue for a lighter match up to red for the strongest. A quick cue for where the best answers are.
Tick the box on any result to select it, then use Copy links or Copy as email to send the sources to a member or colleague.
When we can read a date from a document, the result shows a “Published” date. Some are approximate (month or year only), and documents without a clear date show none. The library reflects camft.org content as of the date shown at the top of this page, so very recently added pages or PDFs may not appear yet.
This tool helps you find CAMFT resources. Content is provided for general information, is not legal advice, and may not be current. Always open and verify the original source, and contact CAMFT staff attorneys for guidance on a specific situation.
