Join Research Connections and Mathematica researchers for a webinar on the
new American Indian and Alaska Native Family and Child Experiences Survey
2015 (AI/AN FACES 2015) data file, the first national study of Region XI
Head Start children and families.

About the Study
The American Indian and Alaska Native Family and Child Experiences Survey
2015 (AI/AN FACES 2015) was designed and implemented through a partnership
of tribal Head Start directors, researchers, and federal officials. Region
XI Head Start programs are those operated by grants to federally-recognized
American Indian and Alaska Native tribes. AI/AN FACES 2015 is the first
study of a nationally representative sample of Region XI Head Start
children and families. The study was conducted with 21 Region XI Head Start
programs in the fall of 2015 and spring of 2016. At both time points, we
assessed the school readiness skills of approximately 1,000 Region XI Head
Start children, surveyed their parents, and asked their Head Start teachers
to rate children’s social-emotional skills. In the spring, we observed
children’s classrooms and asked teachers, center directors, and program
directors to complete surveys.

The webinar will introduce researchers to the study’s purposes, design,
instruments, and data structure. In order to obtain access to the AI/AN
FACES 2015 data, researchers must complete the ICPSR standard application,
as well as study-specific requirements. The training will present
information on the application process and the special requirements for
access and dissemination, to include review by the AI/AN FACES Data
Committee (per agreements with the tribal communities whose Head Start
programs participated in AI/AN FACES 2015). This process is intended to
ensure that the data are used accurately and appropriately, taking into
account tribal input when interpreting and reporting findings. While
protecting participant privacy, the process also ensures dissemination of
findings more broadly with tribal programs and communities.

After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing
information about joining the webinar.
