CUTTING-EDGE DATA COLLECTION PLATFORM

IMPACT supports high-quality implementation by collecting and tracking fidelity, progress, and outcomes data.

Assessments

3C integrates your program in a customized IMPACT platform that streamlines data collection and reporting into one seamless, easy to use, and time-efficient system.

Providers can enter data for each participant session, including:

Log data:
session notes

Fidelity data:
how well the provider adhered to program session expectations

Progress data:
participant progress on individualized target issues as a result of the program

Outcomes data:
how participants change after the program and whether they maintain outcomes over time

Using IMPACT, you can effectively collect, track, and analyze data to ensure fidelity, track outcomes, and demonstrate program results.

Assessments

Providers and administrators can view up-to-date reports to track participant, provider, and program performance:

  • Participant-level reports: log, fidelity, progress, outcomes
  • Summary reports across participants for a provider
  • Summary reports across providers (admin only)

Featured Projects

The Annie E. Casey Foundation (AECF) has partnered with 3C Institute to customize 3C’s Impact implementation support platform to meet the data collection and analysis needs of several evidence-based programs (EBPs) selected by the Foundation. Impact streamlines collection and reporting of fidelity, progress, and outcomes data to support broad scale implementation of these EBPs for improving health and well-being.

A private philanthropic organization based in Baltimore, Maryland, the Annie E. Casey Foundation focuses its grant-giving on agencies and institutions working on creative, cost-effective solutions to the issues negatively impacting children, including poverty, the juvenile justice system, lack of educational opportunities, and disconnection from family and community.

AM/MAP is a school-based mentoring program to change the negative school behavior of middle school youth. The two-year intervention uses small group meetings and is designed to reduce drug abuse and school failure among high-risk adolescents.

Dr. Brenna Bry chose Impact to replace a system currently used to collected fidelity data for AM/MAP, She selected Impact for the ability to customize the support system to meet the needs of the AM/MAP intervention, and for its robust data collection and reporting capabilities.

3C Institute is continuing a longstanding and successful partnership with the developers of CBITS, the Cognitive Behavioral Intervention for Trauma in Schools. With funding from the National Institute of Mental Health, 3C is integrating the CBITS intervention in Impact.

BIOGRAPHY

Dr. Childress obtained her PhD in psychology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Prior to coming to 3C Institute, she served as a research associate and a postdoctoral fellow in the Carolina Institute for Developmental Disabilities at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill working on a longitudinal imaging study aimed at identifying the early markers of autism through behavioral and imaging methodologies. She has 19 years of autism research experience, during which she has examined the behavioral, personality, and cognitive characteristics of individuals with autism and their family members. Dr. Childress also has experience developing behavioral and parent report measurement tools, coordinating multi-site research studies, and collecting data from children and families. She has taught courses and seminars in general child development, autism, and cognitive development at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
