Required Narrative Responses
Considering the Service Coordination strategy and the work of your program for the upcoming
grant period, provide a narrative response that addresses the following items:
1. Provide a description of the current FindHelpPhx website. Describe the types of
agencies, programs, and services included in the FindHelpPhx website and current use
information.
FindHelpPhx.org is an easy-to-use, bilingual community asset map to empower
residents of Maricopa County to find the help they need for themselves. FindlielpPhx
(EncuentraAyudaPhx) lists almost 2,000 low-cost and free healthcare and social service
resources including mental health, housing, parenting, and food/clothing services. With
only two "clicks" ("touches" for mobile users) visitors are able to locate a specific
resource, displaying an easy-to-read description of the organization, its services, cost,
eligibility requirements and directions to the point of service. The FindHelpPhx
(EncuentraAyudaPhx) website is housed on a Maricopa County secure server and only
requires residents to have minimal computer and internet capability to run the map
feature. FindHelpPhx (EncuentraAyudaPhx) is fully mobile ready (using responsive
design) and can be viewed easily on smartphones and tablets. Resources included on
the map are vetted on an ongoing basis by Maricopa County Department of Public
Health social workers to ensure that users receive the most current service information.
FindHelpPhx.org includes a diverse array of services for individuals and families. Family
services such as foster care support, in-home parenting education, breastfeeding
education, and bilingual parent mentor groups are designed to strengthen child health
and increase positive communication in the home. Specialized services are included to
address diverse family compositions (grandparents and other relatives in a parental role,
LOBT families, and children living in families of immigrants and refugees). FindHelpPhx
includes private non-profit, governmental, and faith-based services.
2. Provide a description of the following items for the upcoming grant period:
a. How the FindHelpPhx website or staff will address the needs of agencies/programs
serving families with young children.
GRA-MULTI-16-0787-01 Page 17 of 41

Find HelpPhx is an active member of the Maricopa Family Support Alliance, and regularly
coordinates website trainings at staff meetings of MFSA member agencies. Trainings
involve teaching providers how to train clients in using Find HelpPhx.org for themselves
as an empowerment strategy. Clients spend limited time with child-serving agencies,
and after the service ends, the importance of knowing how to locate services for
themselves to support family functioning cannot be underestimated.
FindHelpPhx plans to present the updated website to the Family Resource Network in
Summer, 2015. Included is a step-by-step training on teaching parents how to feel more
comfortable and capable in finding resources that fit the needs of their families.
b. If different from currently included and described in "1" above, describe the types
of agencies, programs, and services to be included in the FindHelpPhx website. N/A
c. How recruitment and outreach efforts, and engagement and retention practices will
be employed in this program for the targeted population of programs to be included
on the website.
A weekly analysis of website analytics serves as a compass for FindHelpPhx staff in
targeting the number of hits to individual categories and geographical patterns of use.
Categories that register a low number of hits may indicate a need for increased
outreach efforts, which include coalition involvement, "Train the Trainer" presentations
with client and provider groups, and distribution of marketing materials. FindHelpPhx
typically initiates contact with the majority of agencies, and is known for cultivating
relationships with a diverse array of service providers. Analytics also reveals
neighborhood level geographical patterns of use, and similarly FindHelpPhx can target
areas for increased outreach efforts.
In terms of retention of representation of programs and services in the website, the
staff identifies and attends all coalitions and networking meeting of service providers
across the valley, normally sending interns when possible. This helps FHP staff to be
aware of new programs and changes to programs so that they can update the database.
Furthermore, every year, FHP engages in a full vetting of all the data in the site, where
each contacted and researched to ensure the information is current and accurate.
d. The target population demographics of users of the website (i.e. all families,
families with children age birth through five throughout Maricopa County, providers
GRA-MULTI-16-0787-01 Page 18 of 41

of support services for young children's health and development, or other
demographic descriptors).
Currently, FindHelpPhx (EncuentraAyudaPhx) has twenty categories of resources that
are used by families with children 0-5 such as medical/wellness, dental, mental illness,
food/clothing, reproductive/parenting, childcare, education, family violence, elder
services, etc. Within each of these categories, services specific to families with children
under five years are included. For example, under the mental health category, a woman
in the east Valley suffering from post-partum depression would find the Perinatal Mood
Disorder Support Group at Chandler Regional Hospital.
The staff support from this contract will be used to further enhance representation of
services available to families with children 0-5 years of age. FindHelpPhx plans to
present at the Family Resource Network in Summer, 2015, and will offer presentations
in the centers to empower parents and other caregivers interested in learning how to
assess their own family needs and find appropriate services to meet such needs.
FindHelpPhx also will be presenting to the Greater Phoenix Council on Child Abuse in
Summer, 2015. One anticipated outcome is that a working relationship with the
Department of Child Safety (DCS) will be initiated. There are many possibilities to orient
staff to FindHelpPhx with DCS, including new caseworker orientations and general staff
meetings at each of the several County offices. Considering the high numbers of abuse
and neglect in children 0-5, DCS is an essential partner in reaching stressed families.
e. How recruitment and outreach efforts, and engagement and retention practices will
be employed in this program for the targeted population of users of the website.
FindHelpPhx (EncuentraAyudaPhx) has a comprehensive outreach plan that is
continually evolving. The initial strategy was to present the site to agencies that assist
families and individuals in our community. Staff have conducted presentations to
community organizations and agencies since the site went live in October 2012.
FindHelpPhx staff have presented to over 350 parent groups and service and social
service/health care organizations. Agencies are strategically divided into four main
categories: healthcare, education, community organizations, and social services. By
targeting organizations such as libraries, hospitals, school health offices, WIC and DES
offices, community centers such as Boys and Girls Clubs, refugee resettlement agencies,
emergency response crisis teams and non-profit community based organizations we
plan to empower the front line persons that encounter families in crisis with the ability
to make a quality referral to critical services.
Once the redesigned site is launched, FHP is leveraging funds from the Arizona
Department of Health Services to conduct a full media campaign with Spanish language
outlets to get the word out to the community. Staff also conduct ongoing direct
outreach to the community in the form of health and resource fairs, television and radio
GRA-MULTI-16-0787-01 Page 19 of 41

interviews in Spanish, the Mexican and other consulate offices, public events and at
parent events at childcare centers. Two kiosks are located in the Mexican Consulate
and the Maricopa County Department of Public Health Office of Vitals and Registration,
extremely busy offices that provide the opportunity for the general public to learn how
to use the website from an onsite navigator or information staff.
f.How the program will be culturally responsive, linguistically appropriate, age
appropriate and gender responsive.
The principle philosophy of the FindHelpPhx (EncuentraAyudaPhx) website is
accessibility and inclusion. We have built the website in two languages with two URLs:
www.FindHelpPhx.org and www.EncuentraAvudaPhx.org to help users who access their
information in either English or Spanish. However, translation into Spanish is not nearly
enough. Accessibility is accomplished with the highly visual and intuitive layout of the
site. We have designed the site so that there are only two layers (tiles and a map so that
minimal scrolling required for persons, such as (a grandparent raising a grandchild) users
or developmentally delayed persons, who are not highly computer literate. We've also
enlarged the tiles for easier identification, and the search bar eliminates much scrolling
to find neighborhood resources, The first page consists of picture tiles centered on one
page that represent the categories such as medical or dental. When the user selects a
resource on the map, a plain language (family-friendly) description of the resource,
address and contact information, eligibility requirements and cost appears.
FindHelpPhx (EncuentraAyudaPhx) is also fully mobile compatible and can be viewed on
most smartphones and tablets. Research tells us that an increasing number of Maricopa
County residents access the web via mobile devices. The fastest increase in this trend is
seen among the Hispanic community and older adults. However, knowing that most
users of the site will most likely be low to moderate income, the site is created on lower
resolution for older technology and requires minimal scrolling for persons who may not
be computer literate. Identify capacity or infrastructure needed to maintain the website.
3. Identify capacity or infrastructure needed to maintain the website.
Above all, the site needs staff time to identify, vet and maintain resources for the
database, conduct community outreach and marketing and maintain the technical
aspects of the site. In addition, our staff must have a high level capacity in the
knowledge of resources, fluency and literacy in Spanish, ability to plan and conduct
effective outreach, create and manage a sustainability council, supervise and direct
intern support and skill in reviewing website analytics to adapt website design and
layout. The site requires staff that are exceedingly knowledgeable in community needs
and the resources in our county that provides them. It also requires staff with a high
level of Spanish literacy and familiarity with the regional dialect of Spanish spoken most
often in the Maricopa County to provide quality translations for the Spanish version of
GRA-MULTI-16-0787-01 Page 20 of 41

the site. In addition, staff must be able to request and conduct community
presentations in English and Spanish and to professional staff that provide services to
families. In order to assemble the advisory committee staff will rely on their strong
relationship building and facilitation skills and finally staff are being trained in
technology continually so that they can manage the content management system and
review analytics data. Much of this is conducted with the staff supported through this
grant but we also leverage MSW level interns to carry out these functions.
The program will also need web developers on retainer to support the site. Developers
typically manage any unforeseen technology failures of the site or code and execute any
enhancements or improvements to the site depending on feedback from partners,
community or funders. This grant supports approximately 5 percent of anticipated web
development support cost.
3. Describe any planned improvements or changes to FindHelpPhx website for the
grant period. Include the resources necessary to implement changes.
We are fortunate that FindHelpPhx will have undergone a substantial investment to
redesigning the front page for improved ease of searching resources and the back end
for efficiency of managing and updating the database before the grant period begins.
This investment included a content management system (CMS) architecture beneath
the site so that much of the layout of the front (the user facing side) can be done in-
house with staff. An example of a change or improvement would be to add, rename or
rearrange tiles on the front based on analytics feedback on what resources are being
used the most or least.
4. Describe potential challenges and barriers to success of this grant and FindHelpPhx,
and plans for addressing these barriers.
Potential barriers to the grant are secure funding streams. The generous support from
this grant only provides for one full FTE and .25 of another. While MCDPH has been very
successful at leveraging general fund dollars, several additional prevention grant funds,
a grant from Virginia Piper as well as support from the Arizona Department of Health
Services, none of these funds are stable. If we experience volatility in funds, we will lose
the second staff person, as it is difficult to maintain staff at .25 level and we will not
have any funds to maintain the technology of the site or create any improvements.
Much of this is addressed in the responses to the following questions around
partnerships and sustainability (questions: 5 and 9 below).
5. Describe steps that will be taken to promote collaboration and partnerships with
other government departments and other partners.
Staff have conducted presentations to community organizations and agencies since the
site went live in October 2012 totaling approximately 2,200 staff trained on
FindHelpPhx.org. . Agencies are strategically divided into four main categories:
GRA-MULTI-16-0787-01 Page 2,1 of 41

healthcare, education, community organizations, and social services. By targeting
organizations such as libraries, hospitals, school health offices, WIC and DES offices,
community centers such as Boys and Girls Clubs, refugee resettlement agencies,
emergency response crisis teams and non-profit community based organizations we
plan to empower the front line persons that encounter families in crisis with the ability
to make a quality referral to critical services.
Staff also conduct ongoing direct outreach to the community in the form of health and
resource fairs, television and radio interviews in Spanish, the Mexican and other
consulate offices, public events and at parent events at childcare centers.
The FindHelpPhx (EncuentraAyudaPhx) site will also generate referrals to the agencies
listed on the map so that they can spend more resources providing quality services.
6. Describe plans and activities to evaluate website use and to respond to the needs of
the audience described above.
We conducted focus groups before determining the design of the new site from persons
that represented users who we wanted to ensure we meet their needs. Focus groups
where on the elderly, low income single parents, language minority persons, and
persons with disabilities. We feel the new look and layout is very responsive to the
needs of our target audience; however, we plan to continuously adapt our program to
the needs of our audience.
As previously mentioned, FHP staff will rely heavily on analytics feedback that helps us
determine a multitude of information such as:
• How many people use the site?
• What language are they accessing the site in?
• Are the new users or returning visitors?
• How long do they stay on the site?
• What types of resources do they look up
• Where do they live (neighborhood level)
• Are they female or male
• Their approximate age
• What browsers are they using to view the site?
• What mobile devices are they using
• What percentage are mobile versus computer users
This is a rich, realtime data set that is constantly being improved by Google Analytics
(our provider of site analytics) that we will use to measure progress towards our goals as
well shape our outreach and marketing strategies and adapt the design, layout and look
of the site. We also continuously solicit feedback from participants of our community
presentations for input.
GRA-MULTI-16-0787-01 Page 22 of 41

7. Describe the plan and resources necessary for data collection, and plans for
reporting of data to FTF and other partners.
The Office of Health Promotion and Education (OHPE) has experience with FTF grants
beginning in 2009 and has not had any challenges in submitting programmatic and
financial reports. Data for this contract will be collected primarily through website
analytics that is currently available to us as well as the advanced analytics that will be
created through our IT contractor in upcoming months. Please see screen shot below of
our analytics dashboard as an example of the type of data that is available. All analytics
will be generated into user-friendly reports and included in quarterly reports to First
Things First. Data included will be the number of hits to the website, the number of
agencies and services listed, top resource searches, location and demographics of users,
language site is accessed in, browser and device used, and more as they become
available from Google.
In addition, real time analytics data allows the FHP program to be adaptable and will be
regularly used among staff as well as the advisory council for decision making. Analytics
will be used to monitor the impact and return on investment of various marketing
strategies, such as the Spanish media campaign, by monitoring for corresponding spikes
in usage. Additionally, staff will have information on features that may need to be
strengthened based on user behavior on the site. For example, the search field now has
full text search, before we invest in additional more advanced search features, staff
would review analytics data to determine if users utilize the search.
Tracking training and outreach activities will consist of the number of agencies and
persons in attendance at FindHelpPhx presentations. This will be captured internally
through a spreadsheet as well documented through sign in sheets at all presentations.
Additional, presentations will be held by MCDPH "cloud workgroups" (internal
workgroups for implementing public health goals across the department) and those will
be captured though our existing Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) evaluation
structure that is maintained though our Office of Performance Improvement.

8. Describe plans to implement the advisory committee.
The FHP staff will establish an advisory committee to support in decision making,
establishing target audience needs and in identifying and engaging in partners in funding
and general program collaboration. FHP staff will recruit for advisory committee members
among our existing partners, community cloud members and solicit new partners as well.
The committee would exist of approximately five to eight stakeholders representing a user,
a line staff from an agency who makes referrals to families, our hard to reach populations
specialist, a community cloud member and members from leadership of large agencies that
have significant investment in linking families to services. The OHPE administrator who
supervises the FHP program (inkind) coordinates several advisory committees currently
and, therefore can provide technical assistance to staff in forming it and running the
committee in a way that is relevant, engaging and productive. This will require use of
facilitation tools and utilizing the quality planning process (PDSA methodology). We will
establish the committee by October and have ongoing monthly meetings. The council will
establish goals in addition to the founding goals of ensuring the site meets the needs of
families looking for resources and creating sustainability for the project. Roles and
responsibilities of the members will be outlined in an one page agreement and will include
but not be :
1. Becoming knowledgeable in the mission and vision of FHP as well as the intended
target audience.
2. Model values and mission of FHP.
3. Listen, act on and represent diverse perspectives as a part of the project
commitment to inclusivity.
GRA-MULTI-16-0787-01 Page 24 of 41

4. Agree to a two-year term.
5. Contribute meaningfully to identifying and engaging potential funders for FHP.
6. Attend at least 75% of schedule bimonthly Advisory Council meetings, scheduled
one year in advance.
7. Commit to respectful discussion that advances meeting topics.
8. Work collaboratively with other committee members, staff and consultants.
9. Describe plans to address sustainability of FindHelpPhx. Include initial steps and
activities that will lead to the design and implementation of a "long term sustainability
plan". Include the goals, objectives, and timeline for development of the sustainability
plan.
MCDPH has raised tens of thousands of dollars of in-kind costs to bring the FHP site to life
and create a sustainable framework for it. The grant was initially funded by the NW and SW
councils but we were able to successfully make the case that it should be funded by all
seven councils that represent Maricopa County residents. In 2013, we received support
from Virginia Piper to make the site cover the entire county and invested our own general
fund dollars to hire a web developer to change the website design code to responsive
design (able to be viewed on mobile devices) and create a marketing strategy. We
leveraged funds from an existing federal grant to cover seventy five percent of the second
employees for the program as the one staff person was inundated. With additional staff
support, we conducted focus groups and conducted research on how the site could be
improved from its original design (which was also provided inkind) to have a more
professional and updated design, streamline the data entry back-end and be more user-
friendly for all audiences. Since then, support from the Arizona Department of Health
Services (ADHS) has allowed us to redesign the website, migrate all the data and launch a
Spanish media campaign. We will also purchase print materials for mass distribution to
families.

costs.
'Total Animal Budget:
Indirect costs are costs of an organization that are not readily assignable to a particular program, but are
necessary to the operation of the organization and the performance of the program. The cost of operating
and maintaining facilities, depreciation, and administrative salaries are examples of the types of costs that
are usually treated as indirect.
Applicants must list either Option A or Option B and provide proper justification for expenses included:
U Option A - Administrative Costs: with proper justification, grantees may include an allocation for
administrative costs for up to 10% of the total direct costs requested of the grant request.
Administrative costs may include allocable direct charges for: costs of financial, accounting,
auditing, contracting or general legal services; costs of internal evaluation, including overall
management improvement costs; and costs of general liability insurance that protects the
agency/organization(s) responsible for operating a program, other than insurance costs solely
attributable to the program. Administrative costs may also include that portion of salaries and
benefits of the program's director and other administrative staff not attributable to the time spent
in support of a specific program.
OR
xOption B - Federally Approved Indirect Costs: If your agency/organization has a federally approved
indirect cost rate agreement in place, grantees may include an allocation for indirect costs for up to
10% of the direct costs. Applicants must provide a copy of their federally approved indirect cost rate
agreement.

units provide programs with technical support for grant administration, financial and programmatic
compliance and oversight. The units work extensively with other county departments involved in
financial and contract management, such as Office of Management and Budget, Procurement, and
County Finance, to ensure accountability for expenditures in relationship to successful grant projects. To
meet reporting requirements, all FTF funds are tracked separately from other grant funding. Additionally,
the Maricopa County Internal Audit Department audits various MCDPH grants annually. These audits are
used to improve and enhance grant administration capacity. For the fiscal year 2015 budget MCDPH
successfully managed $61,227,601 from various sources. MCDPH has had successful audits and has no
significant findings or corrective actions.

Exhibit A — Ove - w of First Things First and Scope of Work
Overview of First Things First
First Things First seeks to meet the diverse needs of children and families in Arizona communities.
The statewide First Things First Board and Regional Partnership Councils in local communities
across the state share the responsibility of ensuring that early childhood funds are spent on
strategies that will result in improved development, health, and education outcomes for young
children.
Local Regional Partnership Councils are comprised of community volunteers, with each member
representing a specific segment of the community that has a role in ensuring that Arizona's
children grow up to be ready for school and set for life: parents, leaders of faith communities,
tribal representatives, educators, health professionals, business leaders and philanthropists.
First Things First Strategic Direction
First Things First's commitment to young children means more than only funding programs and
services. It means having a shared vision about what being prepared for kindergarten actually
means. First Things First specifies that programs and services funded by the First Things First
Board and Regional Partnership Councils are to address one or more of the following Goal Areas to
impact children birth to age five and their families:
• Improve the quality of early childhood development and health programs
• Increase the access to quality early childhood development and health programs
• Increase access to preventive health care and health screenings
• Offer parent and family support and education concerning early childhood development
and literacy
• Provide professional development and training for early childhood development and
health providers
• Increase coordination of early childhood development and health programs and provide
public information about the importance of early childhood development and health
The First Things First Board established a strategic framework with a set of school readiness
indicators that provide a comprehensive composite measure to show if Arizona is making progress
in providing opportunity for young children to be ready for school and set for life. The strategies
funded by First Things First work collectively to develop a comprehensive system across the state
and regionally to address the school readiness indicators. The First Things First Board and
Regional Partnership Councils determine the priorities and strategies to be funded across the state
and throughout the regions assessing the challenges and building on the resources and assets in
place.
School Readiness Indicators
GRA-MULTI-16-0787-01 Page 34 of 41

• #7% children demonstrating school readiness at kindergarten entry in the development
domains of social-emotional, language and literacy, cognitive and motor and physical.

Wor
Statement of Need
The Central Maricopa, Northwest Maricopa, Phoenix North, Phoenix South, Southeast Maricopa,
and Southwest Maricopa Regional Partnership Councils are responding to a need to improve and
maintain the access to, and coordination of, services and resources for young children and their
families who reside in Maricopa County. Data collected through surveys and community meetings
has demonstrated that there is limited knowledge around the availability of programs and services
for families with children ages 0-5. There is great need for web-based information, which includes
relevant and reliable resources, that supports families with young children throughout Maricopa
County.
Description of Strategy
In the Maricopa and Phoenix regions, First Things First continues to support efforts to address
needs of families. To address the identified need discussed above, the Regional Partnership
Councils have chosen to provide funding to support a Service Coordination strategy. Service
Coordination is a system-level intervention that supports timely and efficient access to services
provided by public and private service providers in the community. The primary objectives of
service coordination are to:
• Reduce duplication and increase access to services
• Improve service delivery timeframes
• Establish pathways and mechanisms for exchange of service delivery information and
data
• Engage in service planning and assessment of service delivery that assures that services
are provided in a collaborative manner that promotes flexibility, fosters positive
G RA- M U LTI-16-0787-01 Page 35 of 41

engagement among providers, and provides consistent information to family members
and the community.
More information on the Service Coordination Strategy may be found in the Standards of Practice.
A link to that document is provided in the Guidance Materials section of this Agreement.
The intent of this contract is to promote increased service coordination through the provision of
funding to support the Find HelpPhx.org (EncuentraAyudaPhx.org ) website. FindHelpPhx.org, an
online resource directory of support and services targeting families with children 0-5 years of age,
is owned and operated by the Maricopa County Department of Public Health. In implementation
of the website, Maricopa County Department of Public Health (MCDPH) will achieve the
aforementioned primary objectives through website maintenance, website promotion,
partnership development, and fund development.
To achieve the intent of this contract, MCDPH (grantee) will be responsible for the management
and maintenance of the Find HelpPhx.org (EncuentraAyudaPhx.org ) website as an easy-to-use,
bilingual online resource guide for residents of Maricopa County. Website maintenance will
include ensuring that the website is comprehensive, accurate, and relevant to families with
children 0-5 years of age, and the organizations that provide support and services to those
families. Concurrently, grantee will ensure that staff members working under this contract are
appropriately trained and knowledgeable on early childhood issues, access to care issues,
community resources, and the needs of families with children 0-5 years of age. Grantee will work
to ensure that information and data provided on the website is reflective and inclusive of the
multitude of communities throughout Maricopa County. In addition, Grantee will ensure that
information is updated timely and is accurate and appropriate to meet the diverse needs of the
target population. Data and information on the website is to be verified and updated annually, at
minimum. Finally, Grantee will ensure that the website design and coding is both aesthetically
appealing and appropriate to meet the demand of users. This includes, but is not limited to:
content is will organized, design is visually pleasing, site is easy to navigate, website is mobile
friendly, website works in multiple browsers, website host has capacity to meet user demands,
and website is updated and/or redesigned as needed to ensure relevancy and alignment with
emerging technologies.
Fundamental to success of the FindHelpPhx.org (EncuentraAyudaPhx.org) website is continued
marketing and outreach to users and programs. Grantee will be charged with outreach to parents
and families that live or work within Maricopa County, as well as community organizations
providing supports and services to those families. As requested by First Things First, grantee will
attend Family Resource Network meetings, First Things First meetings, or other stakeholder
meetings to provide updates and gather information to improve the site. Outreach materials and
messaging will be developed and distributed in order to meet this objective. Grantee will ensure
that all marketing materials adhere to the Grantee Protocols as outlined in the First Things First
Communications Toolkit. The grantee shall consult with First Things First in the planning of public
awareness/marketing strategies, such as websites, advertising, media campaigns or materials
related to the programs or services funded under this Grant Agreement.

Grantee will track use of the website, provide reporting on use of site and deliver outreach with
goal to maintain and increase users of the site. Grantee will provide First Things First with
quarterly narrative reports that include Google analytics and summary comments on data (such as
the number of people accessing the site, locations, demographics, patterns of use) and a summary
of marketing and outreach activities conducted.
Under this contract, Grantee will be expected to seek out opportunities for increased
collaborations and partnership development that result in the enhancement of the website,
increased utilization of website, reduction in the duplication of efforts, increased access to
services, and the exchange of information and data. Potential collaborations include, but are not
limited to:
• partnering with community organizations that provide online resource directories (e.g.
Community Information and Referral, Strong Families AZ, Healthy Teeth AZ, First Things
First/Quality First, etc.) for the purposes of exchanging information and data, reducing
duplication of efforts;
• collaborating with health and human service alliances/collaboratives for co-branding and
marketing to increase utilization of website;
• and/or collaborating with stakeholders to enhance the website and to ensure that the
resources and services identified on the site address the needs of the target audience.
Grantee will establish an advisory committee that will be convened a minimum of two times a
year. The advisory committee will be comprised of community stakeholders and will be
responsible for reviewing efforts to date, and for providing guidance to the grantee on planned
marketing and outreach efforts, data collection and analysis activities, potential partnerships, fund
development, quality improvement activities, evaluation activities, and other activities as needed.
Finally, First Things First recognizes that this project can only be successful if long-term
sustainability planning is part of the process. Under this contract, grantee will be responsible for
the development of a long-term sustainability plan that identifies how grantee will ensure
continuation and growth of the project. The sustainability plan should be realistic and obtainable.
The plan must include approaches to address: the true operational costs, time, technology, and
talent required to sustain or grow FindhelpPhx. The plan will also include budgeting and fund
development (which may include solicitation of financial support from other entities) to
demonstrate that the project will be sustainable should First Things First funding decrease or no
longer be available.

First Things First - Arizona Early Childhood Development and Health Board
Data Security Guidelines and Requirements for Collaborators
BACKGROUND:
The purpose of the Arizona Early Childhood Development and Health Board (First Things First - FTF) is to aid
in the creation of a system that offers opportunities and support for families and communities in the
development of all children, so they can grow up healthy and ready to succeed. Our work is accountable
and transparent to decision-makers and the citizens of Arizona. Collaboration and direct funding of
grantees to undertake work on behalf of the children and families of Arizona is fundamental to the purpose
and mission of FTF. Regular submission of data related to funded work is an important part of ensuring
accountability and maximum positive impact for young children, as well as a material condition of receiving
FTF grant funding.
Data Security Guidelines for Data Submission to FTF
First Things First will ensure that resources allocated have maximum impact for the benefit of children and
families. To ensure this accountability, FTF has established data reporting requirements for all state and
regional grantees. All funded providers shall regularly submit programmatic and financial reports as
identified in the FTF reporting requirements.
FTF data submissions are classified in one of three levels:
• Public data
• Limited distribution data
• Confidential data
The majority of FTF reporting submissions are completed through the FIT Partner Grant Management
System (PGMS). Subsequent to the award of a grant, the grantee will receive general training on login and
navigation within the PGMS system. With this login, the grantee will be able to manage their contract
information. An additional training on strategy-specific data submission requirements will also be
conducted. During that training, the grantee will be informed on submission of data reporting requirements
through PGMS. All data submitted through PGMS is public data or limited distribution data. Because
PGMS is located in a secure extra net environment, grantees using PGMS for data submission are not
required to undertake additional security measures related to their data submission above those identified
in the general and data submission orientations (password and login security, guidelines for upload of
narrative and other reports).
A small group of grantees submit data requirements, with an agreement between the grantee and FTF,
through an established secure web service or FTP (File Transfer Protocol) site via the Internet, rather than a
PGMS web-based entry form. Such data is likely to contain limited distribution data and shall adhere to the
following protocols. Grantees that submit data through the secure web service must submit data within the
established data structures and format; follow all login procedures; submit a formal data change request
form if needed; and ensure that limited distribution data may not be intercepted or viewed at any time by
parties other than the grantee and FTF. Additionally, Grantees must ensure that throughout the reporting
and submission process the data is secured and that any confidential data is de-identified and/or
encrypted.
GRA-MULTI-16-0787-01 Page 40 of 41

Any grantee submitting data identified as confidential must file a formal data security policy with FTF.
Data Security Guidelines for Grantee Maintenance of Data
In order to submit data to FTF in fulfillment of reporting requirements, grantees shall keep all data
collected for their program(s) within their system (database) or hardcopies. Grantee data is likely to contain
highly sensitive information on individuals, their education and their health. These guidelines and
requirements are for the maintenance of those data.
All grantees must have a data security policy in force that identifies how the organization ensures that data
is protected in all its forms, during all phases of its life cycle, from inappropriate access, use, modification,
disclosure, or destruction.
All grantees subject to HIPAA, FERPA, tribal law, or other data regulation are required to submit and
maintain those approvals for all data.
Data Permission Guidelines for Grantee Data
All grantees must be prepared for FTF review of client-level data (e.g. child-level, teacher-level, or early
care and education provider-level) during on-site visits. Additionally, FTF data reporting requirements may
include submission of client-level data (e.g. child-level, teacher-level, or early care and education provider-
level). The grantee agrees to allow FTF to access such data. Should the data be subject to HIPAA, the
grantee agrees to enter into FTF's HIPAA Business Associate Agreement.
To inform clients of FTF's reporting requirements, all grantees must include in their client enrollment forms
the statement: "To comply with reporting requirements of the funding source, I grant permission to [insert
grantee organizational name] to release background, service, and impact related information to the
Arizona Early Childhood Development and Health Board, also known as First Things First." The grantee
warrants to FTF that prior to entering into the grant agreement for FTF funding, it has appropriately
enquired and satisfied itself that it has the ability and authority comply with the requirements of this
section.
Grantees Serving Clients on Tribal Lands
First Things First recognizes Arizona tribes as sovereign nations that have the right to regulate research and
data collection on their tribal lands. To this end, First Things First is committed to obtaining all appropriate
tribal approvals for data collection, analysis and reporting. Accordingly, grantees shall only collect, use and
share data from tribal land in accordance with a data collection agreement between a tribe and First Things
First or the grantee.
Compliance with Data Security Guidelines
The grantee acknowledges that failure to comply with any requirement of these Data Security Guidelines
shall be a material breach of the grant agreement.
First Things First's own Data Security Policy & Procedures and Tribal Data Policy may be viewed on the FTF
website, www,azftf.gov, under Funding/Eligibility & How to Apply or
