| This project will
continue the State's effort to build infrastructure to collect data and report
the remaining Mental Health Block Grant Uniform Reporting System Developmental
Measures. Grant efforts will focus on (1) local provider training to improve
data quality, (2) implementation of web-based technology using DS2K + data
standards to collect, report, and improve accessibility of data, and (3)
strengthening internal and external database linkages. Project outcomes will
include consistent data definitions, timely capture of data, improved measure
of service outcomes and client change, improved data quality, and enhanced
ability to analyze and report on developmental measures such as school
attendance, school performance, and involvement with the criminal justice
system. The project outcomes will be evaluated based on the ability to produce
the data required for URS and other desired reporting. The project will also be
evaluated in terms of its ability to produce data that is useful to and is used
by system stakeholders.
