Attachment 2 - Case Distribution by County for New Contract Awards.pdf

This document is a case distribution table prepared for the Missouri Department of Social Services related to new Foster Care Case Management contract awards. It outlines the allocation of cases across eight regional service areas within Missouri: St. Louis Region, Kansas City Region, Springfield Region, Central Region, South Central Region, Southwest Region, Southeast Region, and statewide coordination. The distribution reflects current base caseloads, proposed adjustments, and case reductions or shifts, establishing the new baseline for contract performance. The St. Louis Region represents the largest service area with 1,970 cases, followed by the Kansas City Region with 1,008 cases, while the Central Region manages 447 cases as the smallest allocation. The statewide total of 4,635 cases comprises the complete contract scope across all regional divisions.

The case distribution methodology demonstrates specific adjustments within select counties to optimize service delivery and resource allocation. Notable changes include a 30-case reduction in Jefferson County, a 15-case reduction in Washington County, and a 30-case shift into Crawford County within the South Central Region. The document preserves stable baselines for most counties while strategically redistributing cases in areas requiring adjustment. This structured allocation framework establishes the contractual obligations for case management services, including foster care case processing, family support coordination, and child welfare administration across Missouri's designated service regions, with the distribution serving as the foundation for performance metrics and resource planning under the new contract award.
