Early Childhood Projects
Project BLOOM’s Wraparound Comparison Study. Project BLOOM, an early childhood system of care initiative in Colorado, commissioned a study conducted by The Center for Systems Integration to compare the wraparound planning process with other individualized planning processes mandated by different service systems to inform its planning efforts to address the social, emotional, and behavioral issues of young children and their families.
Blue Ribbon Policy Council for Early Childhood Mental Health Policy Toolkit. The Center for Systems Integration has developed an online policy toolkit for the Blue Ribbon Policy Council. The purpose of the toolkit is to support the mental health, and social and emotional development of young children through policy and systems change in Colorado.
Denver Early Childhood Council's Mental Health Action Alliance. The Denver Early Childhood Council’s Mental Health Action Alliance goal is to design a mental health system of care for Denver's young children to ensure ready access to services for children and families in community and child-care settings. Toward this goal, CSI developed a research report and action plan (called the Framework for Change) on how to improve the social-emotional health of young children in Colorado.
