Q: Context: The 2-1-1 helpline is a social services innovation that has spread rapidly throughout the U.S. Policy diffusion theory suggests that policymakers seek to reduce uncertainty by anticipating the effects of a proposed innovation through tools such as cost-beneft analyses. Few policy diffusion studies have examined use of information, such as cost-beneft analyses, in the diffusion process. The purpose of this study is to examine how cost-beneft analyses were used during the rapid diffusion of 2-1-1 across states. The paper also describes components of 2-1-1 cost-beneft analyses. Evidence acquisition: In 2011, cost-beneft analyses of 2-1-1 and substantive citations of them were identifed through scholarly key word searches using Academic Search Premier and Web of Science, general Internet searches using Google search terms, and communications with academicians and 2-1-1 practitioners through personal contact and e-mail discussion groups. To be included in this study, documents had to be related to 2-1-1 helplines, present information about their costs and benefts, and be formal documents. The documents were catalogued and analyzed for costbeneft analyses or references to analyses, and stated purpose. Evidence synthesis: Of the 19 documents that met eligibility inclusion criteria, nine were original cost-beneft analyses and ten referenced analyses conducted for other jurisdictions. The diffusion of2-1-1 helplinesin the U.S.hasbeen influenced by interjurisdictionalexchange of cost-beneft analyses, in both the creation of original analyses and/or the referencing of previous work.
