HOUSE BILL 1406 CHILD WELFARE IN GEORGIA STATE FISCAL YEAR 2007 CHILD WELFARE IN GEORGIA 2007 The Division of Family and Children Services (DFCS) has overall responsibility for the administration and management of the State's public child welfare programs Child Protective Services, Foster Care, Independent Living Services, Family Support and Family Preservation Services and Adoptions. DFCS staff carries out a wide range of responsibilities that support the delivery of financial services and social services. Organizational Structure The Division of Family and Children Services is a state-administered, county operated system comprising 159 local county agencies. As of the end of the state fiscal year, DFCS had twelve regional service areas each having many field operations that are responsible for the direct supervision of the local county agencies and all service programs in that area. The managers of field operations report directly to the Deputy Director of DFCS, who reports to the DFCS Division Director. The Division of Family and Children Services has continued to plan aggressively for child welfare improvements. This planning has been carried out in partnership with an array of allied agencies, formal and informal collaboratives, care providers, consumers to include families, children and youth served, as well as with the involvement of the communities at large. Public and media attention to child welfare services in Georgia has resulted in opportunities for in-depth examination of current practice and new opportunities to design programs that will offer expedient, high quality services to children and families. Child Protective Services Children usually come to the attention of the Department of Family and Children Services when a concerned citizen, often a mandated reporter, makes a referral to the local county office. A decision is made as to whether or not the report meets the criteria for an investigation: there is a child under the age of eighteen, a known or suspected incident of maltreatment, and a maltreater. Some callers only need referrals to local resources (i.e. mental health, court system or preventive programs). All reports, whether or not they result in a CPS investigation, are referred, as required by O.C.G.A 19-7-5, to the local law enforcement agency. All screened-out reports are reviewed and approved by the supervisor to ensure that any case with specific allegations of maltreatment is not screened out for investigation. Since Georgia began a new practice of responding to reports through Diversion during SFY 2006, there has been a substantial decrease in the number of CPS cases accepted for service. Diversion is a differential response that emphasizes the utilization of strengthsbased, prevention-driven community response to vulnerable children and families. It is presented as an option to assist families when the safety of children is not in question. Diversion response provides targeted support and linkage to community resources to meet identified needs. All reports, whether or not they result in a CPS investigation, are referred, as required by O.C.G.A. 19-7-5, to the local law enforcement agency. All screened-out reports are reviewed and approved by a supervisor, program administrator, program director i or director respectively (based on the number of referrals received on the family) to ensure that any case with specific allegations of maltreatment is not screened out for investigation. During SFY 2007, there were 92,184 reports made to DFCS statewide. Of those reports, 14,402 were screened out for not meeting the criteria for investigation, 27,632 were handled through diversion, and 50,150 were investigated. Compared to last year, these numbers reflect a decrease in the number of reports. Once an investigation is completed, the investigator and immediate supervisor make a determination about the status of the case. Figure 1 SCREENOUTS: 14,402 Child Protective Services TOTAL REPORTS: 92,184 CPS INVESTIGATIONS: 50,150 DIVERTED TO OTHER SERVICES: 27,632 Two findings are made on each report that is investigated: (1) a maltreatment finding and (2) a risk finding. If a case is substantiated, a preponderance of the evidence supports the allegation. If a case is unsubstantiated, there is either no evidence or not a preponderance of the evidence to support the allegations. The risk findings are: (1) risk indicated case opened for services, (2) risk indicated case opened for placements, (3) risk factors controlled, (4) no significant risk factors, and (5) risk assessment not applicable. The following graph depicts the number and types of cases investigated in SFY 2007 by determination: Figure 2 Types of Cases by Determination 30000 25000 20000 15000 10000 5000 0 12,058 (24.04%) 9,721 (19.38%) 1,545 (3.08%) 26,826 (53.49%) SUBST., OPEN SUBST., UNSUBST., UNSUBST., CLOSED OPEN CLOSED ii On a whole, during SFY 2007 there were 74,890 children involved in DFCS investigations of maltreatment. This is a decrease of 18.53% since SFY 2007 (91,927). Sometimes families are investigated for more than one abuse/neglect incident in one year. Nine thousand thirtytwo children were reported to CPS for an alleged repeat episode of maltreatment. The following charts depict the age (Figure 3), gender (Figure 4) and race status (Figure 5) of children in DFCS investigations of maltreatment during SFY 2007.

Indicated If children cannot be adequately protected in their own home, and they continue to be at risk of abuse and neglect by their parent or caretaker, the court may order temporary removal from the home. The first preference for an out of home placement is with relatives. If there are no available relatives in the area, or if relatives cannot ensure the child's continued protection, the child is placed in a foster home or emergency shelter. Foster Parents and Foster Homes In Georgia, there are approximately 4,963 foster homes and recruitment goes on continually throughout the state. County DFCS staff, primarily, recruit foster parents. They look for prospective foster parents who are in good physical and mental health, with homes that meet the minimum standards set forth and approved by DHR. Foster parents provide temporary care for children, but if a foster child becomes available for adoption, the foster parents often adopt that child. In fact, foster parent adoptions account for approximately 88 percent of adoptions of children in DFCS custody. Prior to being approved to foster, prospective foster parents must complete pre-service training. Physical exams, drug screens, and criminal record checks are required. Each year foster parents complete additional hours of parent development training, and a re-evaluation of the home is conducted. The number of children placed in a foster home will range from one to six (including the parents' own children) and is predetermined by the foster parent and the DFCS agency. The foster parents are reimbursed for a child's care. The rate varies with the age and needs of child. During the first six months of care, initial clothing costs are reimbursed by the agency. The costs are $150 for a child whose age is birth through age 12 or $300 for a child whose age is 13 and older. An annual clothing allowance of $100 per year, and medical treatment costs are covered by the agency. A toll-free foster parent support and intake line (1-888-3108260) is available for foster parents and others wanting information about Georgia's foster care program. iv Foster Care Services At any one time there are approximately 13,000 children in the custody of DFCS. Figures 6, 7, and 8 depict the age, gender, and race of children in the custody of DFCS during SFY 2007.

Ind./Haw. At any given time, about 50% of the children in DFCS custody lives in a family foster home or emergency shelter. Approximately, 20% of the children live with relatives. Many children have special needs and are placed in intensive, intermediate or therapeutic settings, institutions, hospitals or group homes.

Shelter: 11,515 (52.05% ) Relative Foster Home: 5,012 (22.66%) It is critical that a child spends as little time as possible in foster care. While in care, it is important that the child remains in the same out-of-home placement, if at all possible, as long as it meets the child's needs. Federal regulation specifies that the number of times a child moves while in foster care be reduced in tandem with an overall reduction in the length of time in foster care. vi Figure 10 Number of Moves of Children in DFCS Custody 9000 8000 7000 6000 5000 4000 3000 2000 1000 0 8,875 (40.12%) One 6,009 (27.16%) 2,872 (12.98%) 1,550 (7.01%) 2,817 (12.73%) Two Three Four Five or More Figure 11 Length of Time in DFCS Custody 4 Years or More At Least 3 Years, Less Than 4 Years At Least 2 Years, Less Than 3 Years At Least 1 Year, Less Than 2 Years Less Than 1 Year 2,017 (9.12%) 1,462 (6.61%) 2,572 (11.63%) 5,099 (23.05%) 10,973 (49.60%) Some children remain in foster care throughout their teen years. Over 6,840 youth were reported as eligible to receive services through the Independent Living Program, a transition program that prepares teens, ages 14-21, for independence and adulthood. Services include financial assistance for tutoring, college, technical school, supervised housing and life skills training such as budgeting, job seeking and job retention. During FFY 2007, 725 youth were enrolled in some type of post-secondary training or college program and 831 were employed full or part-time for 90 days or more. Children are discharged from foster care for many positive reasons. Four thousand two hundred sixty-four children were reunited with their parents after services during SFY 2007. Many had permanent living arrangements made in a relative home, or were adopted. vii Figure 12 Discharge Reasons for Children in DFCS Custody Reunif ic ation Live With Another Relative Adoption Finalized Emancipation Transfer to Another Agency Guardianship Runaw ay Death 0 1,270 (13.55%) 733 (7.37%) 255 (2.72%) 201 (2.14%) 129 (1.38%) 22 (.23%) 2,499 (26.66%) 4,264 (45.49%) 500 1000 1500 2000 2500 3000 3500 4000 4500 5000 Adoptions Prior to the implementation of the Adoption and Safe Families Act (ASFA) in Georgia, there were less than 500 finalized adoptions per year.

The challenge is to find community partners willing to address the expanding needs of our families and develop community based solutions. Maximization of current resources must continue while recruiting others to help in our rewarding but difficult endeavors. Additional support from the Legislature is required to provide the services and meet the needs that our growing population deserves and requires. Responding to the mandate placed on child welfare agencies to ensure reform in the child welfare field continues to be our priority and our challenge even while resources are lacking and there is a statewide staff shortage. However, we are confident that our best efforts will continue to result in providing the best services possible for families and children. ix THE DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN RESOURCES IS SUPPLYING REPORTS AND STATISTICS ON CHILD WELFARE TO FULFILL THE REQUIREMENTS OF HOUSE BILL 1406.

142 DATA SOURCES AND DEFINITIONS The data contained within this report was extracted from the Internal Data System (IDS) and the Protective Services Data System (PSDS). Data elements corresponding to paragraphs (1) through (4) of HB 1406 (a) were drawn from PSDS except where noted. Data elements corresponding to paragraphs (5) through (12) in this report were drawn from IDS except where noted. Data elements referring to custody, placements, and discharges, used Federal AFCARS definitions. Based on HB 1406, definitions were derived to compute the data elements. They are listed according to paragraph in HB 1406 (a). (1) The number of children for whom a complaint was received is an unduplicated count of child records within each county. It is referred to as the "Number of children involved in CPS investigations" in the body of the report. (2) General demographic data of children for whom a complaint was received are categorizations of the children in (1) by age, race/ethnicity, and gender. (3) The number of children with at least one subsequent report within each county is a count of children for whom a subsequent investigation was conducted during the state fiscal year. It is referred to as the "Children investigated by CPS for an alleged repeat episode of maltreatment" in the body of the report. (4) The response to reports by type of intervention is a count of active cases in PSDS, cases diverted to other services, and the count of CPS reports screened out from IDS. It is referred to as the "Number of reports made to Child Protective Services" in the body of the report. This total is then categorized by disposition (screened out, diversions, and accepted for service: substantiated vs. unsubstantiated, and open vs. closed). (5) The number of children entering custody is a count of children who were removed from their homes during the state fiscal year. Three additional data elements were computed. The number of children in custody at the beginning of the state fiscal year is a count of children with an active placement case as of the first day of the state fiscal year. The total number of children in custody during a state fiscal year is a count of children with an active placement case sometime during the state fiscal year. Finally, the number of children remaining in custody at the end of a state fiscal year is a count of children with an active placement case at the end of the state fiscal year. (6) General demographic data of children who were removed from their homes during the state fiscal year are categorizations of the total number of children in custody in (5) by age, race/ethnicity, and gender. (7) The number of placements of children in custody by type of placement is a breakdown of cases by placement type. (8) The number of children by frequency of placement moves is a count of children by the number of placements they had, including their current placement. (9) The frequency of placement changes according to placement settings is a categorization of cases in IDS by their current placement setting and by the number of placements they had, including their current placement. (10) Length of time in custody by the number of children is computed as the count of children in custody by either the length of time from removal to discharge, or, for children not discharged, the length of time from removal to the end of the state fiscal year. (11) Length of time in care by permanency decision is computed as the count of children in custody by either length of time from removal to discharge, or for children not discharged, the length of time from removal to the end of the state fiscal year. (12) The number of children by type of permanency decision is the count of discharged children by the reason for their discharge.
