SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: This study will collect information from Court
Improvement Program (CIP) staff to (1) understand data capacity and
current use of performance measures and (2) gather feedback from the
performance measure pilot process. This will be accomplished using two
instruments:
JCAMP CIP Data Capacity Survey
The survey asks CIPs about their current capacity to collect
specific data elements from the following six categories of
measurement: (1) Legal and judicial context (e.g., court docketing),
(2) Practices (e.g., attorney pre-petition legal practice), (3) Short-
term outcomes that happen during hearings (e.g., discussion of key
issues), (4) Intermediate outcomes that happen during the case (e.g.,
judicial continuity), (5) Long-term outcomes that happen after case
closure (e.g., child safety), and (6) Cross-cutting themes (e.g.,
equity). The survey asks about capacity broadly and then specifically
for a series of subcategories.
JCAMP Pilot Site Debrief Form
The JCAMP Pilot Site Debrief Form is a survey developed to be
administered to CIP staff who have assisted with piloting of the
performance measures. The survey asks participants about the challenges
and successes in collecting pilot data for the measures, their
confidence in collecting the data going forward, and suggestions for
improving future efforts.
Respondents: Respondents include CIP Administrators and staff.

proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether
