Ultimately, this report relies on publicly available secondary data sets. By continued monitoring of these measures over time we will sharpen our understanding of the communities we serve and the role our CACs can play in healing families. That being said, if we really want to learn from our communities, it is recommended that we engage them in discussion and partnership at the ground level.
Recommendations for Future Measures
• Identify and engage overlooked populations.
(Primary Data Collection Discussed w/Cohort Partners)

• Measure duration of child/family in service.
• Monitor outcomes measures to track effective engagement.
