This is why I do the work I do at @MathematicaNow: 5 years after a partnership with @VermontDCF, their strategic vision and plan led the #TANF program on a journey of modernization and transformation built on research evidence and family voice. Thanks @APHSA1 for lifting this up!
Thanks @paultdecker for an excellent point. This is exactly why I love my job partnering with state/local practitioners across the country to generate and use evidence for everyday decisions. Research & practice can learn, innovate, and improve together! https://t.co/Tfdhuc68q4
30 minutes to go! @LiberatusDC needs $6k to fully fund this #kickstarter. Will you consider pushing across the finish line? Check it out: https://t.co/qGvoNTnu8X
I just backed Liberatus Journal Volume One on @Kickstarter. Now, more than ever, overcoming "us vs them" narratives is what our society needs. Amazing work led by @calebpaxton - check it out and consider backing! https://t.co/ql3WbFeU5K
@CongareeNPS Had an amazing visit on 7/30 with our 4yo son Jack. He was so excited to complete his Junior Ranger booklet. Spotted almost all of the animals. But, when we returned the ranger was already gone for the day. Any chance we can get him his hard-earned ranger badge??
In the midst of #COVID19, we’re mobilizing an “EPiC” response (Equip and Practice in Community) with TANF/workforce programs to better serve families with low-income and self-care during & beyond the crisis. 266+ professionals engaged! @OPRE_ACF@MathematicaNow#ProgressTogether
My commute to work this morning was 4 hours & 1,200 miles long, with a temperature differential of 60 degrees. But I’m still excited to be with @LarimerCounty Works and @BezosFoundation for a design workshop on integrating @joinvroom into adult employment services!
Day 2 of a goals-driven leadership workshop with CO human services teams. We’re talking how to get science-informed interventions to stick in public agencies. Sustaining, scaling, and replicating — redefining implementation through an ecological model. #ProgressTogether
Loved telling @RamseyCounty's journey of building science-informed programming to improve services for children and families. Thanks @NACoTweets for sharing with other counties! #LI2#progresstogether https://t.co/XxEbCrlX7I
.@paultdecker: New data/technology are expanding "what we can study and helping us move closer to more fully answering what I think of as the holy grail of policy questions [...] not just, does it work/is it worth it? But also, how do we make it more effective over time?"
Reflecting on yesterday’s #nawrs2019 research academy session on human-centered design. Folks rolled up their sleeves and were hard at work co-creating ways to make this conference more engaging. Learning #HCD by doing it!
Shannon Ralph of @JeffcoColorado DHS sharing how Goal4 It! has transformed relationships between coaches and customers. But also, the challenges of this kind of shift. #nawrs2019
Had a great time facilitating the small yet mighty @LIFTCommunities NYC team thru a #design workshop to strengthen recruitment efforts today! Be sure to check out the results of the @OPRE_ACF#evaluation@MathematicaNow is conducting of LIFT in the next year or two!
Throwback to 2 weeks ago as our @MathematicaNow team traversed CO meeting new @EarlyMilestones grantees & launching a 2nd year of community-based iniatives to transform the #ECE#workforce! Not pictured: our colleague Gretchen for whom the wind was too much :)
