- Quality Improvement (QI) Peer Network
Public child welfare agencies across the country vary in the implementation, development, and use of QI systems. The NRCOI facilitates a national QI Peer Network to focus on key issues QI staff are facing and enable QI staff to share (and shamelessly steal from!) the experiences and successes of others. All staff interested in becoming part of this Network are welcome to join. The only requirements to participate are a commitment to QI in child welfare and a willingness to share with peers.
Each call, open to all members of the Network, highlights state and county successes in a specific topic area and then includes a facilitated discussion focused on barriers, challenges, and strategies. The goal is for Network participants to lead the agenda development and thereby focus calls on critical QI issues.
If you have any questions or recommendations for the development of this Network, or if you would like to participate, please contact Peter Watson, Director of the NRCOI, at or (207) 228-8330.
