Participants What is your role in early intervention? • Local system manager • VICC member • Service provider/service coordinator • Parent/family member • State ITCVA staff
The Landscape • State Systemic Improvement Plan (SSIP) • Broad Data Analysis • Measurable Result • In-Depth Data Analysis • Children taking action to get needs met
Purpose and Process • Root causes or contributing factors for lower performance • Looking at local data through regional meetings • Looking at statewide data by different variables • Evidence – Inference - Action
Statewide Data • Race/Ethnicity • Medicaid, Non-Medicaid • Gender • Age at Entry • Age at Exit • Length of Time in EI
Data Elements • Indicator rating at entry • Indicator rating at exit • Change from entry to exit
Statewide Data by Variable Race/Ethnicity
What Would You Expect? Would you expect there to be a difference in results on taking action to meet needs based on race/ethnicity? • Yes • No
Inferences – Race/Ethnicity Why might we be seeing these differences?
Statewide Data by Variable Gender
What Would You Expect? Would you expect there to be a difference in results on taking action to meet needs based on gender? • Yes • No
Inferences - Gender Why might we be seeing these differences?
Statewide Data by Variable Age at Entry & Exit;Length of Time in ei
What Would You Expect? What are your expectations about the relationship between age at entry and results on taking action to meet needs?
Expectations - Age at Entry • Enter early • Enter late • Enter mid-way MORE likely to exit with rating of 6-7 LESS likely to exit with rating of 6-7 MORE likely to increase rating from entry to exit MORE likely to decrease rating from entry to exit MORE likely to stay at the samerating from entry to exit
Inferences – Age at Entry Why might we be seeing these differences?
What Would You Expect? What are your expectations about the relationship between age at exit and results on taking action to meet needs?
Raise Your Hand If You Agree Children exiting before age 2 are more likely to have exit ratings of 6-7 than those exiting at 2-3 years old
Inferences – Age at Exit Why might we be seeing these differences?
What Would You Expect? What are your expectations about the relationship between length of time in early intervention and results on taking action to meet needs?
Expectations – Time in EI Generally, I would expect the following results: • Shorter time in EI = higher exit rating • Longer time in EI = higher exit rating • Length of time in EI does not impact results
Inferences – Time in EI Why might we be seeing these differences?
Contributing Factors • Different populations • Impact of certain diagnoses • Impact of family situations • Personnel/Teaming Issues • Personnel at exit versus entry • Different level of teaming at exit • Provider turnover
Contributing Factors • Process/Rating Issues • Inter-rater reliability • Developmental drift • Missing exit data • Degree of reliance on test items/scores • Strictness of interpretation of items in Child Indicator Booklet • Accounting for cultural differences, articulation issues, etc.
Action – Next Steps • Based on list of contributing factors • Identify improvement strategies • Develop theory of action
