Subject:P300 #20750- Add One Health & Human Services Research & Evaluation Manager Position
BACKGROUND:
Over the last five years the Children and Family Services Bureau as a part of the Child
Welfare Redesign and Systems of Care Grant has had a contract with an individual to
research and evaluate complex statistical and data collection reports to define and
measure outcome performance measures to meet state and federal funding and grant and
redesign reporting requirements. The Department has determined that this will be
ongoing work and asks to add one full time Health and Human Services Research and
Evaluation Manager position. A new position at this level is needed because of the
requirements for expertise in research and rigorous statistical analysis and evaluation for
this assignment. No existing departmental position accurately addresses these functions.
The job duties for this position includes planning and directing research and evaluation of
activities on County-wide or area specific social and/or community service programs in
order to document performance in measures defined by state and federal Child Welfare
Service agencies, grant and other projects. Additional job duties include presenting
findings in reports and presentations to document compliance with federal/state/county
regulations, support funding from government, grants, and other sources, and to guide
and direct CWS management in setting policy, long and short-term performance
objectives and procedures for CWS programs to achieve strategic goals, and/or
compliance with regulations. The data collection duties will include reports/queries for
large systems used to document CWS such as the statewide CWS/CMS or CalWIN
payment system, other computer database systems, survey creation and implementation,
and other county agency or community provider data sources. The position requirements
includes collaboration with and/or representing the CWS Bureau’s position with CFS
staff, other department Bureau staff, community partners providing services to CWS,
federal government or their appointed representatives, state, private, and other evaluation
entities in determining methodology for research and evaluation.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this action is not approved, the Department will be unable to provide qualified staff to
meet the ongoing demands for outcome reports in Children and Family Services as
required for funding.
