Subject:Child Welfare Study to Enhance Equity with Data: OPRE Call for Information

Dear Colleagues, The Administration for Children and Families’ Office of Planning, Research and Evaluation (OPRE) recently released a call for information to learn about how state and local child welfare agencies and their partners collect and use data to enhance equity among the populations they serve. In particular, information on documented successes, challenges, and possible barrier to using data are requested to inform the Child Welfare Study to Enhance Equity with Data (CW-SEED) project. This information may include: 1. Research and other literature on promising or potentially problematic data practices (including published articles, reports, and white papers on data practices in child welfare or an adjacent field such as health or justice) 2. Other documents describing promising or potentially problematic data practices (such as policy or reporting documents from state and local agencies, and descriptions of community partners’ data practices) 3. Experiences and perspectives of state or local child welfare agencies or partners that are currently using or planning to implement promising data practices to understand and enhance equity or data practices that may exacerbate inequities 4. Related initiatives involving data practices to understand and improve equity Please share this opportunity with relevant colleagues and networks and encourage them to respond. Information can be sent to cwseed@mathematica-mpr.com through March 31, 2022. Best regards, The CW-SEED project team
