Presenter: Nancy Perez, Mary Anketell, Emily Hackleman, Kathy Hebbeler

This poster reports responses for 50 states, DC, and Puerto Rico on a survey of Part C/619 data systems in 2021. We reported on the national status, by program, on 11 key indicators of a high-quality, IDEA state data system. We also described impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on state data collection and states’ current priorities for future data system development and enhancements. Furthermore, we featured a state profile for Pennsylvania in which state staff described adaptations and changes made to their state data system in response to COVID-19 as well as the impact of COVID-19 on their future priorities for data system enhancements and improvements.
