This grant study, funded as part of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation’s Systems for Action research program, looked into the feasibility of a multi-sector tribally-operated data system and dashboard for documenting health and social service needs and service referrals among youth members of the Coeur d’Alene Tribe. An integrated data system was designed to achieve data sovereignty and improve timeliness and coordination in the delivery of health and social services for the tribal youth population, thereby dismantling forms of structural racism and inequity created by reliance on fragmented non-tribal service delivery and financing systems. Results from this project have been used by the Tribe to plan for a larger-scale, multi-sector database that will allow programs to better serve the community through streamlined intake processes, referrals, better case management capabilities and access to better data to evaluate relevant health and social outcomes. More information about this project can be found in the webinars below.
