You can also obtain copies of the proposed collection of information by emailing *[email protected].* Identify all emailed requests by the title of the information collection.
**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.
