1 Making the Most of Your Composite Computational Spreadsheet: Tools from California

2 Presenters University of California at Berkeley Center for Social Services Research Barbara Needell, MSW, PhD Principal Investigator Daniel Webster, PhD Project Director William Dawson, MSW Project Manager California Department of Social Services Linda Hockman, Chief Outcomes & Accountability Bureau Debbie Williams, MSW, Chief Child Welfare Data Analysis Bureau

3 Introduction Outcomes & Accountability System in California
Infrastructure Tools from the Computational Spreadsheet Case Study

4 California-Child and Family Services Review Outcomes & Accountability System

5 History AB636 Shift from compliance to continuous quality improvement – outcome driven and partnering Aligns with the federal CFSR Four step process Peer Quality Case Review (PQCR) County Self Assessment (CSA) System Improvement Plan (SIP) Quarterly Data Reports

6 C-CFSR Process Quarterly Data Reports Peer Quality Case Review PQCR
County Self-Assessment System Improvement Plan

7 Quarterly Contacts Continuous quality improvement
Co-joint analysis of county performance – tie data to practice Review of quarterly data and SIP progress Technical assistance

8 California’s Data System
CWS/CMS: Became operational in 1997 Contains over 200 data tables More than 400 data entry screens Has about 19,500 users who turnover frequently Archived 1,303,998 cases and 5,389,330 referrals Currently Active: 116,585 cases and 33,721 referrals

9 Making Analysis Transparent
Accessible to All Uniform across state Continuous feedback loop Drill down to details Easily accessible Quality Improvement Local staff must be able to question/challenge analysis, and get an explanation Should be viewed as a learning process, not punitive Continually test data. Communicate with users

10 Differentiated Roles Collaboration:
California Department of Social Services Center for Social Services Research, UC Berkeley Children’s Research Center Statewide Data Committee CDSS & UC Berkeley share responsibility for child welfare reporting, analysis, and official publications State and UC Berkeley data reports Public Aggregated data, providing drill down to county level Dynamic stratification

11 Computational Spreadsheet
Tools from the Computational Spreadsheet
