Sponsored by the Childrenâs Bureau (CB) in the Administration on Children, Youth and Families (ACYF), Administration for Youth and Families (ACF), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), the Evaluation of the Child Welfare Capacity Building Collaborative seeks approval for the information collection to track, monitor, and evaluate the activities of the Capacity Building Collaborative. The Collaborative includes three Federally funded centers (Center for States, Center for Tribes, and Center for Courts) that deliver national child welfare expertise and evidence-informed training and technical assistance services to state, tribal, and territorial public child welfare agencies and Court Improvement Programs (CIPs). This study uses
instruments that build on previously approved OMB instruments, including satisfaction surveys, assessment tools, interview protocols, and service-specific feedback forms (OMB #0970â0484, expiration 11/30/22; OMB #0970â0494, expiration 2/28/23).
The CB funded Centersâ collective goal is to build the capacities of State, local, Tribal child welfare systems to successfully undertake practice, organizational, and systemic reforms necessary to implement federal policies, meet federal standards, and achieve better outcomes for the children, youth and families they serve.
Agencies that receive formula funding through the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act, and titles IV-B and IV-E of the Social Security Act are eligible for technical assistance from the Childrenâs Bureau to support implementation of these programs, compliance with federal requirements, and improvement of outcomes.
The Centersâ services have been organized into three major categories: (1) product development and information dissemination, including the creation and release of website content, publications, and other resources; (2) training and peer networking, including the delivery of online courses or âlearning experiences,â virtual presentations, and facilitated peer discussions; and (3) jurisdiction-specific consultation and coaching, including workshops and onsite visits to states and tribes to provide customized support. Each service category has been designed to achieve specific outcomes that require different levels of engagement and interaction between the Center and its targeted service recipients.
