 Final Report Oregon Child & Family Services Review
The period under review for the case reviews was from April 1, 2006 to
September 10, 2007. The findings were derived from the following
documents and data collection procedures:
-
The Statewide Assessment, prepared by the
Children, Adults and Families Division (CAF) of the Oregon Department of
Human Services. The State Data Profile, prepared by the Children's
Bureau, which provides State child welfare data for Federal fiscal years
2003, 2004, and 2005.
-
Reviews of 65 cases (41 foster care cases and 24
in-home services cases) at three sites throughout the State: 31 cases in
Multnomah County, 17 cases in Deschutes County, and 17 cases in Marion
County.
-
Interviews or focus groups (conducted at all
three sites and at the State level) with stakeholders including, but not
limited to children, parents, foster parents, all levels of child welfare
agency personnel, collaborating agency personnel, service providers,
court personnel, and attorneys.
-
All 65 cases were open child welfare agency
cases at some time during the period under review.
