Abstract:
The purpose of the Assessing Models of Coordinated Services for Low-Income Children and Their Families (AMCS) project is to understand how states and local communities are coordinating services across sectors to most efficiently and effectively serve low-income children and their families. On October 22, 2019, OMB approved site visits with staff from six state and local-level coordinated services approaches. In light of the coronavirus pandemic, we need to shift the mode of data collection from in-person site visits to “virtual site visits” and have also added prompts to understand how operations have been affected by COVID-19. The proposed changes are prompted by the public health crisis and our desire to understand any adjustments coordinated services approaches have made as a result of COVID-19, and gather that information in a way that maintains health and safety of participants and the research team.
