services to most efficiently and
effectively serve the needs of lowincome children and their families. ACF
aims to understand strategies used to
support partnerships, including the
federal barriers to agency collaboration.
In support of achieving these goals, the
study team is conducting ‘‘virtual site
visits’’ with six programs that offer
coordinated services. The study team
will gather information through
interviews with program staff members,
such as agency leaders or frontline staff,
and focus groups with parents.
Data collection activities will include
up to six program ‘‘virtual site visits.’’
‘‘Virtual site visits’’ include semistructured interviews with up to 30 total
staff at each site and focus groups with
8–10 parents at each site. Semistructured interviews with program and
partner staff will obtain in-depth
information about the goals and
objectives of programs, the services
provided, how the coordinated services
are implemented, how staffing is
managed, data use, and any facilitators
and barriers to coordination. Focus
groups with parents participating in the
program will provide the opportunity to
learn about how parents perceive the
program; how it meets their needs; what
benefits they gain from the program; and
how they enroll, participate, and
progress through the program.
Respondents: Lead program and
partner program staff members working
in six programs across the United States
that coordinate early care and education
services with family economic security
services and/or other health and human
services, as well as parents receiving
services from these programs. Staff
respondents will be selected with the
goal of having staff represent each level
of the organization. Parents who have
participated in the program for at least
6 months and who receive early
childhood services and at least one
other program service will be invited to
participate in focus groups.
