Child welfare courts, including judges and attorneys, play a key role in ensuring the safety, permanency, and well-being of children in the child welfare system. However, few courts have the data or the ability to analyze and use data in a meaningful way to improve practice and outcomes for children and families. In 2021 - 2022, the Judicial, Court, and Attorney Measures of Performance (JCAMP) were developed (see OMB #: 0970-0593) and published. JCAMP is a set of national performance measures for child welfare courts to use to inform practice changes. To ensure the performance measures are implemented successfully, this project, JCAMP: Feedback and Implementation, is intended to support states, tribes, and local courts as they implement the JCAMP measures and to collect feedback from users to continuously improve implementation support strategies. The proposed data collection is necessary to sufficiently understand how to improve JCAMP implementation support and to provide data to inform state or tribal JCAMP projects when they lack the internal capacity to collect their own data.
This study will (1) collect information from JCAMP Implementation Teams to understand their experiences with JCAMP implementation support, and (2) collect information from parents and children with child welfare cases, foster/kinship caregivers, judges, caseworkers, parent attorneys, childrenâs attorneys, and child welfare agency attorneys to gather information for JCAMP measures selected for use by jurisdictions (jurisdictions will collect only the data elements relevant to them).
This information will inform refinement of the implementation materials and guidance and be used by JCAMP sites to inform their decision-making and practice changes.
