Abstract

Early Childhood Comprehensive Systems (ECCS) grants help states and communities improve early childhood systems to support child development, equitable access to quality services and supports, and family well-being. Truly interdisciplinary, ECCS promotes cross-sector systems change initiatives that focus on integrating health care, mental health, social services, and family support broadly and within communities with concentrated risk factors that negatively impact child health and development. Florida was 1 of 12 states funded from 2016 to 2021 to use a Collaborative Improvement and Innovation Network (CoIIN) approach to do this work. Through community-driven initiatives that focus on policy, partnerships, and practices, Florida ECCS committed to ensuring equitable opportunities for families and young children who may face barriers due to residing in disenfranchised communities. This article describes the process of evaluating this multiyear community-led, place-based initiative that leveraged cross-sector state-level support and used a variety of methods to track evolving ECCS processes and outcomes.

佛罗里达州幼儿综合系统影响项目的评估策略

幼儿综合系统(ECCS)赠款帮助各州和社区改善幼儿系统，以支持儿童发展，公平获得优质服务和支持，以及家庭福祉。ECCS真正是跨学科的，它促进跨部门的系统变革举措，重点是在具有对儿童健康和发展产生负面影响的风险因素集中的社区内广泛整合卫生保健、精神卫生、社会服务和家庭支持。佛罗里达州是2016年至2021年期间使用协作改进和创新网络(CoIIN)方法开展这项工作的12个州之一。通过关注政策、伙伴关系和实践的社区驱动的倡议，佛罗里达ECCS致力于确保由于居住在被剥夺公民权的社区而可能面临障碍的家庭和幼儿获得公平的机会。本文描述了评估这一由社区主导、基于地方的多年倡议的过程，该倡议利用跨部门的国家级支持，并使用各种方法来跟踪不断发展的ECCS过程和结果。

期刊介绍： Infants & Young Children is an interdisciplinary journal focusing on vulnerable children from birth to five years of age and their families. Of special interest are articles involving innovative interventions, summaries of important research developments and their implications for practice, updates for high priority topic areas, balanced presentations of controversial issues, and articles that address issues involving policy, professional training, new conceptual models, and related matters. Although data are often presented primarily to illustrate points, some types of data-based articles may be appropriate.
