Story Behind the Curve

What does it measure?

Complete data is essential to understanding performance. One weakness in our data is reporting at annual assessment.  Yet this information is critical to understanding change over time while participants are enrolled in programs. This data quality measure draws attention to and seeks to increase the proportion of records with income and sources collected at annual/exit assessment.

How does it measure?

Question 18 on the Annual Performance Report, “Client Cash Income Category – Earned/Other Income Category – by Start and Annual Assessment/Exit Status” provides the basis for this measure. The numerator is the total number of adults with income information at start and annual assessment/exit. The denominator is the total number of adults, minus the number of adult stayers who are not yet required to have an annual assessment.

This performance measure is reported in cumulative, quarterly reporting periods that begin October 1st and end September 30th. The target is an annual goal.
