COMET Collaboratives

Allows multiple organizations to share data about all of the children in a community. Real-time data when you need it.

This type of sharing allows communities to come together to serve the needs of a child across all facets of their lives. Our team has experience supporting collaborative community initiatives and community funding organizations by integrating data from program sites, schools, and homes. These efforts are HIPAA and FERPA compliant, using a rigorous data usage consent methodology and are customized to meet the goals of community initiatives and stakeholders.
Over the last decade, COMET has partnered with child-serving organizations across the country and as these programs have grown, so too have our products. What started as individual sites have evolved into whole community data-sharing initiatives. Our knowledge and experience have led to the successful development of two different Community Collaborative Solutions to help the children in any community SUCCEED.
School-Age Collaborative - a child-centric, multi-organizational, integrated student data system (ISDS) for communities so that they have consistent and timely information to support student success. School information systems serve as the foundation for the ISDS collaborative roster; non-school collaborative partner data is joined with school data to form a complete picture of each student. The ISDS securely shares critical data among participating organizations, adhering to collaborative legal requirements for data security, data sharing, data privacy, and parent consent. The ISDS is longitudinal, storing academic, out-of-school time (OST), tutoring, and community data. Ultimately, this allows everyone serving the student to work better together to help each student achieve their personal best.


Whole Child Health Collaborative - built upon the School-Age Collaborative offering with the addition of medical data tracking and integration. The Whole Child Health Collaborative addresses the needs and analyzes the data of children through the secure sharing of information (based on consent/legal agreements) between families, medical providers, schools, child-serving organizations, and the community. Whole Child Heath is only successful when all facets of the child's health are maintained: physical, cognitive, social-emotional, behavioral, and mental. For this collaboration, medical record integration, HIPAA compliance (security), and closed-loop referral tracking are in place.

    Every child has a story... COMET has the details.

    Security & Consent

    Confidential, secure, and with the highest continuity of service. Designed with the most stringent data security and confidentiality requirements, COMET utilizes proven methods and algorithms from the banking, defense, and healthcare industries to prevent data breaches. HIPAA & FERPA: Compliance required for school-age and whole child health collaboratives. PARENT CONSENT: Requires proper disclosure to the parent, the ability for the parent to revoke consent, and expiration date for renewed consent. Parent Portal Video
