Additionally, this acquisition will support the establishment of peer learning communities and other mechanisms to facilitate the sharing of lessons learned, findings, and resources from the research and technical assistance activities among pilot and non-pilot states and other TANF jurisdictions. Description of Services � The scope of the work includes, but is not limited to, the following activities: design and carry out implementation and outcome studies of the pilot programs; provide tailored research, evaluation, and data-related technical assistance (TA) to each pilot state and potentially other states or TANF jurisdictions, coordinating closely with any relevant ACF-funded programmatic TA efforts; establish peer learning communities to facilitate the sharing of lessons learned, findings, and resources from the research and technical assistance activities among pilot and non-pilot states and other TANF jurisdictions; draft and disseminate study findings; facilitate active engagement with program practitioners, decision makers, and TANF participants, and potentially other interested parties, to inform tasks at all key stages of the project; and develop universal research, evaluation, and data-related tools and resources to support TANF pilot program states and other non-pilot states.
