概述	In partnership with Mathematica, the Mesa County (CO) TANF program developed and rigorously tested the use of a parenting empowerment tool to engage new program participants during their eligibility interview and motivate a more meaningful connection to the agency. A rapid evaluation found positive impacts on participants’ engagement rates.",
摘要	Key Findings: The revamped eligibility interview process, which included an orientation to Vroom (a parenting empowerment and tips tool) and a short overview video, showed promising signs of increased upfront engagement. Three out of four (75 percent) parents receiving the full revamped eligibility intervention attended an orientation session within 30 days, compared to 58 percent of parents who received the business-as-usual approach. Sixty-nine percent of parents who received a “light” version of the revamped eligibility intervention attended an orientation session within 30 days, but this was not statistically different from the rate of the business-as-usual group. In partnership with the Colorado Department of Human Services (CDHS) and the Mesa County (Colorado) Department of Human Services, Mathematica helped apply a behavioral science lens to identify factors that contribute to low engagement in the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program. The team then co-created an evidence-informed solution and tested it to see whether it improved participants’ up-front engagement in the program. This brief describes the county’s efforts—which were guided by the Learn, Innovate, Improve (LI²) framework—to design, test, and learn from a research-informed solution to the challenge of low follow-through from an eligibility interview to program orientation.
