Governor DeWine Releases Status Update on
Children Services Transformation
|
|
(COLUMBUS, Ohio)—Ohio
Governor Mike DeWine today released a status update on the
implementation of recommendations from the Children Services
Transformation Advisory Council which aims to reform Ohio's children
services system.
“Every child in Ohio deserves to live a fulfilling life where they have
the opportunity to reach their God-given potential,” said Governor
DeWine. “I am proud of the progress that has been made so far to
help families, but there is more work to be done to keep our
children safe, and build stable homes and strong communities.”
The Advisory Council includes a wide range of families, youth, and
subject matter experts from across the state. Since their final
report in 2020, 16 recommendations have been fully implemented, 13
have been partially implemented, and eight are in progress.
Some of the most notable recommendations fully implemented include:
An updated Foster Youth and Resource Family Bill of Rights which
establishes a clear set of rights youth in foster care and families
may expect of the children services system.
The creation of the Youth and Family Ombudsmen Office which ensures
the independent and impartial review of youth, family, and community
complaints or concerns.
The establishment of a consistent, statewide onboarding program for
new caseworkers and supervisors.
As each recommendation is fully implemented, progress will be
monitored and adjusted as needed. |
