This fellowship is designed to: 1) provide an environment where a highly qualified, productive candidate will be able to learn and develop analytical and leadership skills in public health, 2) contribute analytic support to strengthen the evaluation and research capacity of DHVECS, and 3) assist in promoting the use of data to improve health equity and reduce health disparities.
Research Project: The ORISE Fellow will collaborate with the Division of Home Visiting and Early Childhood Systems’ Office of the Director to support activity focused on the advancement of Health Equity and the strengthening of Early Childhood Systems.
Specifically, the fellow will build upon projects to develop a measurement and evaluation strategy to assess, continually improve and articulate the progress and impact of early childhood systems programs. This effort will result in an evaluability assessment and plan for ECS, recommendations for a menu of performance indicators and measures for ongoing program development and the development of related communications documents that will strengthen federal and state capacity to articulate early childhood systems progress and impact.
The fellow will also support efforts to improve collaboration across federal early childhood programs and with specific stakeholder groups such as health providers and families through conducting analyses of current collaborative efforts and supporting the development of strategies and resources to facilitate collaboration.
Examples of research the Fellow will contribute to support Early Childhood Systems work will include:
The fellow will also support projects across the entire portfolio of early childhood systems and home visiting programs that explore qualitative and quantitative methods to measure advancements towards eliminating inequality and advancing health equity across the various program areas.
