About this file

This is a fee table and rate calculation document prepared for the Washington Department of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF) in support of a Request for Information regarding the Independent Living Skills (ILS) Program and Foster Care Housing Program (FCHP) for transition-age youth. The document establishes regionalized service capacity, billing structures, and operational cost frameworks across seven catchment areas serving a statewide monthly youth population of 752. Service delivery includes case management for engaged, active-dependent, and post-dependency youth populations, with case load standards of 37, 35, and 33 cases respectively per full-time equivalent (FTE) case manager. Additional services encompassed in the fee structure include skills sessions, service participation incentives, training and manuals, graduation celebrations, and special events. The document reflects adjustments effective April 1, 2024, including increased case manager FTE allocations, reduced service outreach funding from $100 to $60 per youth per quarter, decreased event funding, and modified supervision ratios from 4:1 to the DCYF standard of 6:1.

The fee table establishes monthly capacity payments per FTE ranging from $4,056 to $4,532 across regions and case rate payments varying by service engagement level from $134 to $168 per youth monthly. Personnel costs are regionalized with ILS case manager base wages ranging from $52,900 to $61,900 annually depending on catchment area, supplemented by standardized benefits including health insurance at $5,082 annually, paid time off, professional development, and payroll taxes totaling 17 percent. Operational costs are calculated on a per-FTE basis and include office space rent at $29.62 per 100 square feet, utilities at $2.10 per square foot monthly, equipment at $55 monthly, training at $250 annually per person, and an unplanned operational cost reserve of 5 percent. The document references wage data sourced from JobsEQ as of 2023 first quarter for Community and Social Service Occupations (SOC 21-1000) at the 50th percentile and includes detailed calculations for supervisory, management, and administrative positions with established step increases and regional adjustments.
