Abstract: The Evaluation of the Child Welfare Capacity Building Collaborative is sponsored by the Children’s Bureau (CB) in the Administration on Children, Youth and Families (ACYF), Administration for Children and Families (ACF), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Evaluation activities have been underway since initially approved in September 2021. Through these initial activities, the study team has identified additional information that is necessary for a full understanding of the functioning and outcomes of the Child Welfare Capacity Building Collaborative. As a result, CB currently seeks approval for six additional data collection efforts, which were conceptualized and planned as a result of what has been learned. They represent a second part of the data collection activities already underway for this study. These additional information collection activities support the approved data collections under this OMB number and are necessary to reach the overarching goals of the evaluation: to track, monitor, and evaluate the activities of the Collaborative which includes three federally funded Centers (Center for States [CBCS], Center for Tribes [CBCT], and Center for Courts [CBCC]) that deliver national child welfare expertise and evidence-informed training and technical assistance (TA) services to state, tribal, and territorial public child welfare agencies and Court Improvement Programs (CIPs) [henceforth referred to as jurisdictions]. The collective goal of the Centers is to build the capacities of jurisdictions to successfully undertake practice, organizational, and systemic reforms necessary to implement federal policies, meet federal standards, and achieve better outcomes for the children, youth, and families they serve.
