Early Childhood Court
The Institute completed its second evaluation of Early Childhood Court (ECC) in September 2021 and included a summary of the evaluation and recommendations in our 2020-2021 Annual Report. Since its completion, the evaluators have disseminated the findings to multiple audiences. In December 2021, the evaluators provided a comprehensive virtual presentation of findings to the ECC statewide workgroup. In June 2022, the Institute ECC team presented the findings of both Institute-led ECC evaluations at the 2022 National Organization of Forensic Social Work Conference in New Orleans, Louisiana. Finally, in September 2022, the University of South Florida ECC team presented the evaluation findings at a joint conference held by the Division for Early Childhood and the International Society on Early Intervention in Chicago, Illinois.
In addition to continuing to disseminating evaluation findings, at the request of the Office of Family Court (formerly the Office of Court Improvement), the Institute recently agreed to provide data analysis support to update findings on permanency and other outcomes of youth served by ECC. This work will begin in fall 2022 in preparation for the legislative session.
