The Title V MCH Services Block Grant uses a performance measurement framework. This system tracks needs and progress toward goals. The framework includes three parts: 1.
**National Outcome Measures (NOMs) and National Performance Measures (NPMs)** These use population-based, state-level data sourced from national data sets. 2. **Evidence-Based Strategy Measures (ESMs)** States develop and use these to achieve NOMs and NPMs.
3. **State Performance Measures (SPMs)** States may create these to address their priorities that NOMs, NPMs, and ESMs do not cover. The TVIS tracks this work.
