SIRC Poster September 2022: Putting Equity into Practice:Assessing the Utility andFeasibility of an Equity ImpactAssessment forImplementation ResourceDevelopment

This toolkit is designed for use with Impact Center Support Specialists and Triple P Implementation teams to co-adapt the assessment process to local context. The assessment identifies: important people, places, platforms, and topics from parents' perspectives to enhance program reach, accessibility, and strategically inform media and marketing efforts.

An equity assessment of the Implementation Capacity for Triple P (ICTP) tools and resources was identified as a need in order to center equity in the tool development process. These tools and resources are key to support partners’ implementation efforts of the Triple P – Positive Parenting Program. This assessment is expected to lead to expanded access to equity-related tools and resources through the ICTP Simulation Lab and the identification of opportunities for equity-related implementation support practice improvement.

This tool is intended to serve as a resource for Triple P regions to use when exploring and implementing recruitment and selection strategies. The tool includes both recruitment and selection practice recommendations and resources to support application.

Acumen's free Adaptive Leadership Team Course: Mobilizing for change and disrupting the status quo, will teach the participant how to:

1. Find the root cause of a stubborn and recurring challenge in your organization, team or community, 
2. Partner with people in positions of authority or power,
3. Recognize your role in the challenge and use your own power to get to a solution, 
4. Lead adaptively amidst times of mistrust, resistance, conflict, and distress.

This interactive lesson from the National Implementation Research Network's (NIRN) active implementation hub describes how to employ and document the key components in each Plan-Do-Study- Act (PDSA) Cycle phase and identify the importance of utilizing iterative PDSA cycles. After the lesson, you should be able to apply a PDSA cycle to successfully engage in problem-solving as a Team.

The Triple P 5-Year Strategic Plan helps communities proactively plan for Triple P scale-up and support. Lead Implementing Agencies are expected to report the status and planned scale-up of Triple P interventions in their community, in particular (1) the reach of Triple P Levels 2-5 among families with children ages 0-17 and of (2) the Stay Positive communication strategy among the general population.

The Impact Center at FPG developed this resource using 5-year estimates of the American Community Survey (ACS), an ongoing survey of the U.S. Census Bureau, to help LIAs calculate reach numbers consistently and easily.

This PowerPoint was used in a live webinar series teaching lead implementing agencies how to implement the IDA-TP with service delivery agencies. The objectives of this 2-day series include learning to administer the IDA and learning to facilitate action planning with the results from the IDA-TP.

Prinz, R. (Chair) (2020, February). Measuring Triple P Implementation and Scale-Up: Novel Methods and Measures to Inform Decision-Making. Symposium conducted at the Helping Families Change Conference, Brisbane, Australia.

This module covers the basics of building a decision-support data system (DSDS), including: 1) how to decide what questions you want to answer and what data you want to collect 2) how to collect the data in a way that balances burden and quality of data 3) how to use the data you collect to drive decision-making and improvement and 4) building an accountability plan for your DSDS.

This tool teaches how to use the Implementation Drivers Assessment (IDA-TP) to improve capacity to implement Triple P within a service delivery agency.

The Implementation Drivers Assessment for the Triple P (IDA-TP) project team developed a measure of how well individual agencies within a community coalition support the delivery of chosen interventions from the Triple P—Positive Parenting Program. The IDA-TP includes eight indices, each covering a different topic related to implementation infrastructure and best practices. These scores are meant to be used for action planning and may develop or regress over time.

What are you going to see in this report:

• This report shows scores for each individual index on the IDA and the summary indices.
• For each index, you’ll also see recommendations based on the Service Delivery Agency’s score for that index. Recommendations will highlight potential next steps and key considerations.

This scoring rubric is not intended to replace the facilitated administration of the IDA-TP. The purpose is to provide a rapid scoring tool to help action planning and capacity improvement efforts.

This measure assesses the organizational climate for the implementation of innovations, as it is significantly associated with management support for implementing the innovation. (Adapted from Klein, Conn, & Sorra’s (2001) MRPTOO Implementation Climate Scale).

This informational handout describes how community coalitions can monitor program sustainability.

This informational handout describes how community coalitions can measure the cost associated with implementing the Triple P program.

Developed by Weiner et al. (2017), these three measures can be administered to a wide range of stakeholders (e.g., parents, direct service providers, administrators) to determine the extent to which they believe an intervention (e.g., Triple P) or an implementation strategy (e.g., training, coaching, data collection, technical assistance) is acceptable, appropriate, and feasible.

This informational handout provides a description of and link to the Triple P Session Checklist.

Designed to be administered to individual teams within the community Triple P coalition, Chilenski et al.’s (2016) Team Functioning Scale for Team Leadership can be used as a measure of the degree to which team leadership encourages input and consensus, and promotes a friendly work environment.

Designed to be administered to individual teams within the community Triple P coalition, Chilenski et al.’s (2016) Team Functioning Scale for Team Focus on Work can be used as measure of teamwork orientation.

Designed to be administered to community Triple P coalition members (including coalition and agency Triple P coordinators and implementation team members, but excluding lead agency directors and service agency directors), the scale contains five items that assess the degree to which influential community leaders are committed to and champion the community Triple P initiative. (Adapted from Perkins et al.’s 2011 measure of community buy-in for local PROSPER initiatives).

This measure assesses how well individual agencies within a community coalition support the delivery of chosen interventions from the Triple P.

Mattessich et al’s (2001) Wilder Collaboration Factors Inventory assesses group collaboration across community partnership initiatives.

Chilenski, Greenberg, & Feinberg’s (2007) Community Readiness Scale offers an assessment of community readiness to implement large‐scale community change projects that involve several community partners. This scale may be administered to mixed samples of community leaders, service agency representatives, parents, and youth during a community’s initial readiness activities for scaling programs like the Triple P system of interventions.

In this module, participants learn strategies to successfully recruit co-creation partners for a successful, sustainable implementation of Triple P scale-up.
