Screen for Highlights Present highlights, not every single response Consensus: where can we build on agreement? Disagreement: which disagreements are strongest and how will they affect practice and policy changes? Information gaps/don’t knows: where can we build agreement with better information?

The Value of Trend Lines Doing another CCI months later identifies areas of progress and improved information flows Some measures may go down as respondents recognize they really don’t do what is being spotlighted, once they understand the question better

Review responses for… Representativeness—who’s missing? How do answers differ by agency? Can those differences start a useful conversation? Level of organization—front-line vs supervisory vs policy
