BACKGROUND

The Child Welfare System Improvement and Accountability Act, Assembly Bill 636, Chapter 678, Statutes of 2001, and Welfare and Institutions Code (WIC) Section

10601.2 required the California Department of Social Services (CDSS) to establish and monitor the C-CFSR process. The C-CFSR process ensures county accountability and improved outcomes for children through the implementation of the core outcomes of the federal Child and Family Services Review (CFSR).

All County Information Notice No. I-51-22 Page Two

The purpose of the C-CFSR is to significantly strengthen the accountability system used in California to monitor and assess the quality of services provided on behalf of youth in the foster care system. As such, the C-CFSR operates on a philosophy of continuous quality improvement, interagency partnerships, community involvement, and public reporting of program outcomes as outlined in ACIN I-48-19. The C-CFSR is comprised of county child welfare system and probation placement reviews and maximizes compliance with federal regulations for the receipt of federal Title IV-E and Title IV-B funds. Principal components of the C-CFSR process include: 1) County Self-Assessment (CSA), 2) County System Improvement Plan (SIP), and 3) County System Improvement Plan Progress Reports (SIP Progress Reports).

The C-CFSR five-year schedule is based on a calendar year. The first page of the attached calendar is an overview of CSA due dates for all counties across the five-year cycle. The remaining pages of the calendar provide the continuing C-CFSR schedule identified in ACIN I-23-20. All reports are due on the dates identified in the statewide five-year schedule. Understanding the impact of COVID-19 and the delays it has caused related to due dates for principal components of the C-CFSR, the CDSS will determine modified due dates on a county-by county basis. The process to select due dates for the C-CFSR activities and reports is a collaborative effort between the county and their assigned CDSS C-CFSR consultant. If the due date falls on a weekend, state or county holiday, the report will be due on the following shared business day.

Extensions must be formally requested via a letter from the County Child Welfare Department Director and the County Chief Probation Officer to:
