Subject:Add one EHSD Division Manager (XADD) full time position in Children and Family Services
BACKGROUND:
Division Managers in the Children & Family Services Bureau are responsible for the administration and
operations for the program.The State requires a multi-system, multi-disciplinary approach and the development of
a System of Care. Every year, child welfare programs have experienced new laws, regulations and initiatives
pertaining to child safety and welfare. For example, in 2012 foster care was extended to allow youth to remain in
foster care until age 21, and recently in 2015 the State assigned the responsibility for the population of
Commercial Sexually Exploited Children to Child Welfare. The department is requesting an additional Division
Manager to oversee the newly state mandated Continuous Quality Improvement process, and to ensure
implementation of state Child and Family Services Reviews (CFSR), as well as to ensure that Children and
Family Services (CFS) policies and protocols are up-to-date and accurate. Also, the Division Manager will be
assigned special projects and will participate on EHSD’s Strategic Initiatives and goals to advance the workforce.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this EHS Division Manager position is not added the Department will have insufficient staff to effectively
oversee all of the administrative mandates required in Children and Family Services to monitor compliance,
quality control and participation in oversight of the System Improvement Plan to ensure that children are safe and
receiving appropriate services.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
In 2015 the State assigned the responsibility for the population of Commercial Sexually Exploited Children to
Child Welfare.The requested position will ensure that children are safe and receiving appropriate services, oversee
the newly state mandated Continuous Quality Improvement process, and to ensure implementation of state Child
and Family Services Reviews (CFSR), as well as (CFS) policies and protocols are up-to-date and accurate.
