National Post School Outcome Data Community of Practice
------------------------------------------------------
Hi all: Facebook could be used to find youth and to request newer contact
information. As a researcher who has been collecting transition related
information on youth involved in the juvenile justice system after they
leave closed custody, we have found that youth typically don't use e-mail
anymore and are texters or facebook users (or other social networking
sources). Needless to say, we have had great difficulties in keeping in
contact with the youth once they leave closed custody. We have looked into
using Facebook, but unfortunately, have not figured out a way to use it
that would protect the confidentiality of the youth that would pass by our
Institutional Review Board for Research on Human Subjects. If someone knows
a way...let me know.

Hi Jane,
The incentive discussion has been very interesting. I have been
wondering for some time now if any states (school districts) are
reaching kids through Facebook and if so, what policies have they
developed, etc.
Thanks. Liz

A fellow state is asking a question:
We are wanting to start offering incentives to participants who take
part in our Indicator 14 survey. Can you tell me what some other
states are offering? We were thinking $5 Sonic cards or Visa gift
cards. Any ideas you have seen to be successful? Any help would be
appreciated!
If you have experiences related to this, please reply all and share
your ideas! Thanks! Jane
