Workload Measures: Troy and Sarah- reported there is a draft proposal done for phase 1 of the project-which will create a survey to see how counties collect data now. This will determine which counties will be good for collecting outcome measures. DOC audits will be done by November, 2018-this information will be used as well, along with how 1006 funding is being used across the state.
