June 2011Vol. 12, No. 5Toolkit for Information Sharing
A toolkit from the Child Welfare League of America and the Juvenile Law Center provides guidance for improved information and data-sharing practices among agencies that work with youth. The "Models for Change Information Sharing Tool Kit" sets out the principles that govern information and data-sharing for juvenile justice agencies that can be applicable to any agency working with juveniles and their families. The toolkit provides step-by-step processes in three areas:
- Information sharing for case planning and decision-making
- Data collection and sharing for law, policy, and program development
- Data collection and sharing for program evaluation and performance measurement
Users are asked to complete a registration form. A full description of the toolkit and registration information are available online, along with recorded webinars on information and data sharing:
