Limitations on Random Sampling Methodology • Adult In-Person Surveys are scheduled based on availability of person and location and commonly occur at: – Facility Based Day Programs – Residential Facilities • Data can be skewed as it collects from a sample with potentially the least experience with community resources • Stratified sampling allows for complete picture of service delivery landscape with stratums based on day service, facility, etc. 8

Next Steps for DC and NCI? 9

Identifying Additional Priority Areas • Gaining additional insight on service access and employment outcomes for people 30 and younger • Understanding the experience of aging caregivers to help guide development of an Individual and Family Services (IFS) waiver 10

Identifying Additional Priority Areas • Developing mailers for inclusion in upcoming AFS survey cycle – Posting AFS findings on DDS website • Using Staff Stability Survey findings to address compliance activities within our Quality Management Division 11
