Many factors can influence the success of an childhood integrated data system (ECIDS), and one of the most crucial is its positionality within a state.
Which agency serves as technical host? Which partner agencies perform which roles, and which staff should contribute to a particular initiative? How do teams share ownership, to ensure that all stakeholders have a voice and remain equally committed over the course of a project?
In this episode, ECDataWorks co-principal investigators Missy Coffey (SRI International) and Phil Sirinides (Penn State Harrisburg) speak with three state and national experts about their experiences in the ECIDS field, and offer some time-tested strategies for positioning an ECIDS for success.
Guests include: Adelia Jenkins, Executive Director of Actionable Intelligence for Social Policy; Bentley Ponder, Deputy Commissioner for Quality Innovations and Partnerships with Georgia’s Department of Early Care and Learning; and Rebecca Gomez, Program Officer in Education with the Heising-Simons Foundation.
