Collaborative Improvement and Innovation Networks (CoIINs)

The National Technical Assistance Center for the Education of Neglected or Delinquent Children and Youth (NDTAC) created Collaborative Improvement and Innovation Networks (CoIINs) for Title I, Part D (TIPD) state coordinators with three or more years of experience.

The CoIINs are intended to build upon and leverage the expertise of seasoned state coordinators to advance practice beyond the administrative work of TIPD. Commonly used in the health sector, a CoIIN offers support to teams of stakeholders that are tackling a specific problem, particularly where evidence and knowledge are available but underutilized. The inaugural NDTAC CoIIN will focus on the issue of gathering and using outcomes data to inform TIPD practices and improve service delivery to students.

State teams are invited and voluntarily sign up to participate in the COIINs. Each month, state coordinators and their respective teams will share progress on their efforts to improve data collection and use, discuss challenges they face in implementing their chosen strategies, and brainstorm potential solutions to those challenges. Through state coordinators’ work in the CoIIN, NDTAC aims to foster community among seasoned state coordinators and support state coordinators in engaging partners who can support their TIPD work. Similar to the Communities of Practice, conversations within the CoIIN will inform the development of tools and resources to support state coordinators now and in the future.
