Legislative Audit Report on the Department of Human Resources Social Services Administration
Our audit disclosed that, based on SSA's case review system used to monitor local departments' compliance with service requirements established in State regulations, many children in foster care were still not receiving the required services necessary for their emotional, physical, and educational well-being. For example, SSA records reflect that 35 percent of these children were still not attending school. Additionally, SSA had no assurance that federal funds had been recovered for all eligible foster care children. According to SSA's records, 232 of the 8,869 foster care cases were not receiving Title IV-E benefits as of April 2004.
