Increase in data accuracy.<br />
ACCOMPLISHMENTS:<br />
1 st Quarter Report: All counties need to benefit from a 'one stop' in<strong>for</strong>mation source <strong>for</strong> the identification, resolution and opportunity<br />
to learn from the successes <strong>of</strong> all county departments. A web page <strong>for</strong> social services is under construction and will be operational in<br />
2003. The web page will allow <strong>for</strong> system messages, FAQ's, highlighting the good works <strong>of</strong> other county <strong>of</strong>fices and have access to a<br />
stand alone training site <strong>for</strong> practicing data entry. The primary objective <strong>of</strong> the web site is to emphasize the importance behind<br />
accurate data collection. Once the web page is established, the Evaluation and Reporting Unit will identify a series <strong>of</strong> data elements<br />
that will be periodically selected from IDS online and county DFCS <strong>of</strong>fices will have their data published along with tips <strong>for</strong> data<br />
