Part C and 619 staff can use the content in this session to address common issues with data about families. In particular, staff can learn how one state used a structured approach to identify challenges with their family outcomes data and develop intentional strategies to address those challenges.
Many thanks to all of our presenters, TA centers, the DaSy center, and our core planning team led by Kathryn Morrison and Ruth Littlefield who kept everything running on time. We also thank all the Part C and 619 coordinators the data managers, and the parent leaders, for everything that you do every day.

This IDIO 2020 keynote provides Part C and Part B 619 staff with foundational concepts related to date and equity.
Part C and Part B 619 staff can learn from the reflections of their peers on analyzing child outcomes data with an equity mindset.
This presentation can help Part C staff and other stakeholders gain strategies for identifying representativeness in response rates and how to ensure all families’ voices are represented in family survey data.
In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, many states continue to provide Part C and 619 services online or via a hybrid model of remote and in-person. For programs that have moved to in-person, access is often limited to only children and staff. As a result, challenges have emerged in determining the best ways to provide practice-based coaching to support practitioners with the implementation of evidence-based practices.
