The 2010 Wisconsin Early Childhood System Assessment Report (Dr. Katherine Magnuson):
“While the state collects many types of data
related to early childhood, we don’t have the capacity to connect it, track children’s progress, or use it to assess the system.”

A unified data system would collect information about children, personnel, and
programs, with an individual identifier for each. allow information about children, personnel, and
programs to be linked through those individual identifiers.
include mechanisms for reporting and analysis that make its data accessible to those who need it while respecting important privacy considerations.
Allow for future vision of “cradle to career” LDS data concept (EC & K12 & post-secondary & workforce)

Collaborative Effort between the Department of Public Instruction (DPI), the Department of Children and Families (DCF) and the Department of Health Services (DHS), with input from the Department of Workforce Development and the WI Council On Children and Families
A Project Charter was created and signed in September, 2011.
The Charter was signed by Secretary Dennis Smith from DHS, Secretary Eloise Anderson from DCF, and Dr. Tony Evers, State Superintendent for DPI.

Our Charter directed the Project Team To:
Identify key questions an EC LDS should answerIdentify the programs and data elements to answer
those questionsIdentify where (if anywhere) those elements are
trackedIdentify how to add and link data to answer the key
questions neededMake Best Practice Recommendations

Are children, birth to 5, on track to succeed when they enter school and beyond?
Which children and families are and are not being served by which programs/services?
Which children have access to high-quality early childhood programs and services?
What characteristics of programs are associated with positive child outcomes for which children?
What are the educational and economic returns on early childhood investments?
* Guidance provided by Early Childhood Data Collaborative,
Input from many WI stakeholders 10

A Data Roundtable - diverse group of stakeholders
To identify the numerous questions underlying the “big five” questions---what are all the questions we must answer to really know how children are doing?
To include key partners in these processes to ensure cross system collaboration and create consensus.

Although WI did not receive the 1st award, we are one of 4 other states that qualified for round 2 applications.
WI invited to submit a Round 2 application in the fall of 2012
Application was submitted and grant was awarded – ◦ $22.7 million – total grant◦ approx. $9 million is allocated to EC LDS – 4 year grant
WI is ready to build the EC LDS

6. Early childhood data added to presentation layer7. Research agenda, reporting processes and
analytical capacity, to answer key policy questions
• Intra- and inter-departmental
8. Training for system users (secured data)• State employees (DCF, DHS, DPI) • External stakeholders ( ex: school district, other partners )

Enhancements to DCF Enterprise Warehouse:◦ YoungStar (Wisconsin’s TQRIS)◦ Wisconsin Shares (Wisconsin’s childcare subsidy program)◦ Infrastructure for including other programs
(examples: Child Welfare, W-2, Child Support)
DHS Division of Public Health Customer Hub:◦ Vital Records◦ Immunization Registry◦ Public Health (e.g. Home Visiting)
Entity Resolution Tool (ERT) Project:◦ Testing of tool requires matching of ID’s across agencies to
find unduplicated counts of the children involved in multiple programs
◦ Programs involved in ERT testing are: Vital Records, YoungStar, WI Shares, 4K-12 and IDEA Part B (Special Education)

Why Do We Want To Link Data Across Agencies/Programs?
Example: Is the Johnny Smith now in 5K the same Johnny Smith who was in the WI Shares Childcare Subsidy program in the past and the same Johnny Smith who was identified as a low birth-weight baby in his Vital Records birth record? (subject to data sharing agreement)

How Do We Link Data Across Agencies/Programs?
This project is the “How”!

Project Scope
◦ Several open-source ERTs will be analyzed (see Project Charter)
◦ A robust open-source matching tool choice will be made using the criteria defined in the Project Objectives section of the Project Charter
◦ Once the ERT is chosen, the project team will Design, Build, Test and Implement the ERT solution, for the purpose of matching individuals across the agencies of DPI, DCF and DHS

Project Scope
◦ Dependency: The cross-agency testing will require a Data Sharing Agreement (DSA) (also known as a MOU or DUA)
◦ This will be under development by the newly-formed EC LDS Data Governance Committee
◦ Team will use mock data to test until the agreement is in place
