Human Services are evolving from person level theory driven practices to practices that incorporate macro level data systems for assessments and solution planning. To successfully maximize workforce efforts, leverage financial resources and improve citizen outcomes, agencies must acquire and analyze data, utilizing staff with technical expertise in Human Services. Currently Franklin County and ancillary systems work with fragmented and partitioned data. There is also minimal dedicated staff expertise related to either Human Service programming or data analytics. Completion of this project will allow us to identify our data sources, their respective commonwealth or local platforms and data structures to be integrated into a data warehouse. The goal is to influence organization culture by moving from person level planning by department model to a population planning and intervention model that draws on cross systems data for the community that we serve. Initially this project will not serve additional individuals but will allow for future efficiency of limited resources, which in turn could allow for more individuals to be served in prioritized areas versus continuation of funding at historical levels. Please provide a detailed budget on the use of the funds for the program/service.
