Abstract

Given the proportion of young children experiencing disadvantages in achieving optimal health due to inequities related to race, place, and income, there is increasing attention to developing effective early childhood (EC) systems. As EC leaders embrace methods such as collective impact in driving systems change, there is a growing recognition that a one-size-fits-all approach to developing integrated EC systems may be inappropriate as systems-building efforts may differ in their “maturity.” Systems maturity, as we define, refers to the ability of child-focused organizations, across disciplines and sectors, to successfully collaborate toward continuous improvement in supporting optimal child well-being. A flexible, developmental framework of systems building accounting for maturity better articulates the nuances of EC systems-building work. This article describes an emergent framework of EC systems development observed from states and communities participating in the Early Childhood Comprehensive Systems Collaborative Improvement and Innovation Network (ECCS CoIIN) and aiming to build systems for increased developmental promotion and screening. The framework depicted both acknowledges the complexity of systems building while providing a simplified frame for assessing the status of a system to drive further system development. This framework can be utilized to guide effective implementation and evaluation of EC systems-building initiatives.
探索儿童早期系统成熟的框架
由于与种族、地域和收入有关的不平等,幼儿在实现最佳健康方面处于不利地位的比例越来越大,因此越来越重视发展有效的幼儿(EC)系统。随着电子商务领导者接受诸如推动系统变革的集体影响等方法,越来越多的人认识到,开发集成电子商务系统的一刀切方法可能不合适,因为系统构建工作的“成熟度”可能不同。正如我们所定义的,系统成熟度是指以儿童为中心的组织,跨学科和部门,成功地合作,以支持最佳儿童福祉的持续改进的能力。考虑成熟度的灵活的、发展性的系统构建框架更好地阐明了电子商务系统构建工作的细微差别。本文描述了从参与幼儿综合系统协作改进和创新网络(ECCS CoIIN)的州和社区观察到的EC系统发展的新兴框架,旨在建立促进发展和筛选的系统。所描述的框架承认了系统构建的复杂性,同时为评估系统状态提供了一个简化的框架,以推动进一步的系统开发。该框架可用于指导有效实施和评估电子商务系统建设倡议。

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.
