Q: When will the data dictionary be available for counties to leverage when completing their scope assessment?
A: The draft of the data dictionary will be published by the end of 2024. CWS-CARES will remain in active development through March 2026. As a result, the data dictionary will continue to evolve till then. We plan on publishing updates to the CWS-CARES data dictionary every quarter after the initial draft is published by end of 2024.
