NEW RESEARCH: A new CDT report from the Civic Tech team explores how data and technology can help mitigate problems in child welfare agencies. It offers recommendations to maximize benefits and minimize harms. Across the country, child welfare agencies work with over 390,000 youth in foster care annually. They ensure safety and wellbeing but face challenges like agency coordination, biased data, and high social worker turnover. To tackle these issues, agencies are using data and #AI tools. While promising, these technologies risk entrenching racial and socioeconomic disparities, stigmatizing foster youth, and compromising #privacy. Recommendations include identifying potential harms, enhancing data governance, and vetting third-party vendors. These steps are crucial as more agencies adopt AI-powered tools.

The latest report from Center for Democracy & Technology (authored by Maddy Dwyer!) sheds light on how data and technology can help child welfare agencies overcome these challenges while acknowledging the inherent risks. CDT offers key recommendations: 1. Identify the problems data or technology can solve and potential harms. 2. Engage affected stakeholders, from caseworkers to foster youth. 3. Establish or enhance data and technology governance for decision-making. 4. Implement and manage AI tools safely and responsibly. 5. Diligently vet third-party vendors. As public agencies increasingly adopt AI-powered tools, these guidelines are crucial for maximizing benefits and mitigating harms. By following these recommendations, we can better support our foster care system, ensuring that every child receives the care and opportunities they deserve. https://lnkd.in/erexfRhj #ChildWelfare #FosterCare #Data #Technology #AI #Governance #CDT #SocialWork #PublicService #Innovation #ResponsibleAI
