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,
children’s 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.
