 Review of the Sacramento County Child Protective Services Division
This review, conducted by MGT of America, Inc., began in September 2008 and continued through
January 2009. The scope of work focused on evaluating Sacramento County
Child Protective Services (CPS) to determine whether it was adequately and sufficiently providing services to families and children to allow it to meet its mission. The review targeted areas that may have been involved in cases or referrals pertaining to child fatalities and did not include analyses of some programs within CPS, such as adoptions, licensing, and permanent placement. Reviewers agreed with CPS's
triannual self-assessment, which said the agency has systemic problems that may be the cause of its poor performance, and recommended that the county bring in an outside manager to ensure that changes are made.
