1 Measuring Well Being in Child Welfare Three Branch Institute July 2013
2 Most agency specific outcomes are actually process measures Outcomes limited to the mandate or activities of a single agency and/or external service providers To truly measure an outcome (such as family well-being, or child s health status) we need to take a multi-systems approach
3 Getting to Well-Being Assessment of Need Access to Services Quality of Services Effectiveness of Services Different data for different purposes: Child level vs. systems level
4 Getting to Well-Being Descriptive: how many children have diagnosed disabilities? (By age, gender, race, type of disabilities) Agency Specific Outcome: Do children receive assessment and treatment? Are children with disabilities achieving permanency? Integrated Functional Outcome: Are children experiencing limitations as a result of their medical condition? Is status improving?
5 Getting to Well Being What screening tools are already in place? Many can be used over time to identify service needs, assess improvement and determine the need for changes in service delivery. Consider reporting capabilities before scaling up What outcomes are already being measured by a partner agency? Can child welfare children be identified in the data?
6 And How Are the Children? National Health Care Access Measures: Insurance coverage Having a Usual Source of healthcare Immunizations Oral Health Dental Visits Federal Interagency Forum on Child and Family Statistics. America s Children: Key National Indicators of Well-Being, 2013.
7 And How Are the Children? Additional Data Needed Adequacy of healthcare coverage Quality and content of health care In Child Welfare, physical health is monitored through qualitative case reviews. Some jurisdictions employ foster care health nurses and use Medicaid claims or other healthcare data to assess health care utilization
8 Getting to Well Being: Access to Healthcare

10 And How Are the Children? National Measures of Health Status Preterm Birth and Low Birth weight Infant Mortality Emotional and Behavioral Difficulties Adolescent Depression Activity Limitation (due to chronic condition) Diet Quality (Healthy Eating Index), Obesity Asthma Federal Interagency Forum on Child and Family Statistics. America s Children: Key National Indicators of Well-Being, 2013.
11 And How Are the Children? Health Data Needs Improved measure of child disability based on functional difficulties In Child Welfare: we know very little about the health status of children and have traditionally focused on healthcare processes. Increased use of functional assessments and linkages to other data systems are key to improvement in this area
12 And How Are the Children?
13 Getting to Well Being: Descriptive Data/Assessing Need
14 Begin where you are: start small, show value, build relationships Cluster Analysis Trauma Assessment and Treatment collaborations with behavioral health Access to Educational Data Connections to Medicaid data Primary prevention connections to public health and early learning
15 Resources for Action Planning Data sharing resources America s Children: Key National Indicators of Well-Being, 2013 High level child welfare data state fact sheets Descriptive Data Who s In Care Ongoing peer learning Additional support and TA
16 There can be no keener revelation of a society's soul than the way in which it treats its children. Nelson Mandela
17 Key Questions: Well-Being Processes Are children and caregivers assessed for appropriate service needs? What interventions are currently in place to address trauma and improve functioning and well-being? Are they achieving the desired results? How is program fidelity being assessed? Are there services/interventions available in all areas? Are they culturally sensitive? Targeted for the population? Evaluate capacity for data sharing and interagency collaboration (Medicaid, substance abuse, public health, early learning )
18 Key Questions: Well-Being Outcomes Are children and caregivers assessed for appropriate service needs? Do children and youth have a positive relationship with a caring adult? Have children reached normative standards for growth and development? Are children and youth succeeding in school? Are children and youth exhibiting a reduction in trauma symptoms and/or improved social and emotional development? 18
19 Guidance from ACF: Well-Being Explains ACYF s priority to promote social and emotional well-being for children and youth receiving child welfare services, Encourages child welfare agencies to focus on improving the behavioral and social-emotional outcomes for children who have experienced abuse and/or neglect. im/2012/im1204.pdf
20 Guidance from ACF: Trauma Defines the issues surrounding psychotropic medication use by children in foster care, highlights available resources encourages increasing access to clinically appropriate screening, assessment, and evidence-based interventions for foster children with mental health and trauma-related needs. im/2012/im1203.pdf
21 Guidance from ACF: Early Learning Provides information to State and local child welfare agencies to reinforce the Children's Bureau commitment to supporting child welfare agencies' investment in partnerships with Head Start and Early Head Start agencies in order to improve young children's access to and continuity of comprehensive, high quality early care and education services.
