FAQ's:

The on-line self-assessment is an exact duplicate of the self-assessment that is in the guidebook. However, as new editions of the guidebook are printed some updates will be made to the self-assessment. The on-line self-assessment will always be the most up-to-date version available. 1.How is the online self-assessment different from the self-assessment in my Strengthening Families Guidebook?

Your individual program data will never be used without your permission. An administrator on the Strengthening Families national team has access to the entire data set in case you need to make changes, forget your password, and for other administrative purposes. Nationally we will be aggregating data across programs and may present reports based on this aggregated data in a variety of contexts. We will also give authorization for an administrator in each Strengthening Families network state to work with the dataset for that state. In no case will these reports reveal individual program information without programmatic consent. 2.Who will have access to my program’s data?

The registration form helps us to collect information on programs using the selfassessment all over the country. This information will help us to build a knowledge base that we hope will support: additional investments in Strengthening Families at a national and state level; the interest of states and programs in adopting Strengthening Families; the ability to track and document the impact of strengthening families in the long run. We recognize that filling out the registration form is extra work—but we hope it will pay off in benefits for all of us. 3.Why do I need to fill out the registration information?
