Statewide Longitudinal Data Systems State Support Team
The SLDS Sustainability Toolkit provides an overview of what sustainability is and how to plan, document, and ensure sustainability for SLDSs. As one of seven components of the SLDS Framework, sustainability is the ability to support and enhance an SLDS over time with sufficient human, organizational, structural, and material capacity to meet current and future needs. Building these capacities should be an ongoing focus that starts with the initial planning of the SLDS and continues over time as the work and the system mature.
