What is the PDC exactly?What is the PDC exactly?
• The visible part is the PDC website, but that is not the PDC.
• The PDC is both an online and offline data repository.
• PDC also conducts analysis on different sources and supports internal and external data users on how to use quantitative data.
• The PDC supports external research initiatives (CSDS-FCM) but has also started to shift into research production.

• Early Development Instrument– 31.8% of children are vulnerable in
one or more EDI domains
– 2007 scores are the first in new series (2004 is not comparable)
– Curve will become available by Fall 2010
– Spatial inequities are “distribution curves” we want to correct.
Children and youth reach their full potential.

Some Some ConclusionsConclusions
About turning curvesAbout turning curves
• Turning the curve is typically longitudinal (over time).– This is a valid measure but…
• Also keep in mind:– Spatial nature of indicators: zooming in adds
new layers
– Equity of indicators: while the overall indicator might be showing progress, some groups may be falling behind.
About population About population indicatorsindicators• You don’t have to measure them:
– Have No Fear: the PDC is here!
• They will help you– Understand the context in which you operate– Inform current and growing needs– Detect priorities and vulnerable groups you
may serve– Measure your own programs in contrast to the
overall picture
