BACKGROUND:
The Employment and Human Services Department, Children and Family Services (CFS)
Bureau implemented Child Welfare (CWS) Redesign to enhance current service delivery
and improve outcomes for children and families. The redesign plan includes providing early
intervention services, developing community partnerships, and increasing the number of
resource families. The Department issued a Request for Proposals #1102 to solicit
organizations interested in providing case management services to families at-risk of
becoming involved with the Child Welfare System. The organizations were selected as a
result of the competitive process.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
These contracts supports all of the community outcomes established in the Children’s
Report Card: 1) “Children Ready for and Succeeding in School”; 2) “Children and Youth
Healthy and Preparing for Productive Adulthood”; 3) “Families that are Economically Self
Sufficient”; 4) “Families that are Safe, Stable and Nurturing”; and 5) “Communities that are
Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families,” by providing
intervention for families at-risk of entering the Child Welfare System.
