Illinois faces the challenge of connecting data from disparate systems that contain demographic data and information related to young children and their families to help assess the needs of Illinois families. Staff from the Illinois Early Childhood Asset Map (IECAM) at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign recently partnered with Chapin Hall at the University of Chicago to consolidate data relevant to young children (birth to age 8) and their families in the state. The compilation of these data allows a needs assessment by the Office of Early Childhood Development (OECD) in the Governor’s Office based on the most current data available (related to select risk factors for academic failure).
