The purpose of this Interagency Agreement is to provide funds to support the work of the Federal Interagency Forum on Child and Family Statistics (Forum). The purpose of the Forum is to foster collaboration among Federal agencies that produce or use statistical data on children and families. Specifically, the Forum seeks to improve both the quality and use of data on children and families by investigating questions of data quality, data measurement, and data integration; identifying information gaps and data inconsistencies; widening access to information on children and families through the annual publication American’s Children: Key National Indicators of Well-Being and other means; coordinating the development and use of statistical data bases among Federal agencies; promoting communication among data producers, researchers, and public policymakers; and addressing concerns regarding collection, access, and dissemination of data.

Beginning in 2011, the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) has convened a Federal Interagency Task Force on the Arts and Human Development to encourage more and better research on how the arts can help people reach their full potential at all stages of life. Task force members represent multiple units across the federal government, including the US Department of Health and Human Services, the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation, and the US Department of Education, among others. To date, the Task Force has met quarterly to share ideas and information about research gaps and opportunities for understanding the arts'' role in improving health and educational outcomes throughout the lifespan. The Task Force has conducted a series of public webinars on compelling research and practices. Additionally, the group has begun a literature review of research on the arts and human development. In November 2012, four Task Force member agencies hosted a first-ever convening at the National Academy of Sciences to review the current state of research on the arts, health, and well-being in older Americans.

The charge of the Interagency Committee includes promoting collaboration among federal agencies. A goal of this committee is to develop a national “Roadmap” for Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). This strategic planning effort will represent the collective expertise of providers, educators, advocates, federal/state/national organizations, and individuals with TBI and their families and will result in a consensus document outlining the critical elements of a successful system of care for TBI service delivery.
Outcomes of the planning effort include the adoption of NINDS Common Data Elements for TBI research, and creation of the FITBIR Informatics System to store data from TBI patients and controls enrolled in studies funded by the DoD and NIH. The FITBIR Informatics System was developed to share data across the entire TBI research field and to facilitate collaboration between laboratories, as well as interconnectivity with other informatics platforms.

The FITBIR informatics system was developed to share data across the entire TBI research field. Our system is a combination of modules that supports sharing subject level de-identified data, rather than summaries or interpretations of the information. This work is done to help accelerate research progress by allowing re-analysis of data, as well as re-aggregation, integration, and rigorous comparison with other data, tools, and methods.
