RFP - Child Welfare County Self-Assessment (CSA), Peer Review, & Self-Improvement Plan (SIP)

The Siskiyou County Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA), Social Services Division (SSD) announces its intent to contract for consultation services in the preparation and completion of their Child Welfare County Self-Assessment (CSA) and System Improvement Plan (SIP).The County of Siskiyou is required to complete a CSA in accordance with the provisions of the Child Welfare Outcomes and Accountability System, referred to as the California Child and Family Services Review (CFSR). The provisions of the CFSR require that Child Welfare and Probation Departments provide periodic reports to the California Department of Social Services (CDSS). The reports include the CSA, SIP, and the Peer Quality Case Review (PQCR).Much of the CFSR looks at outcomes data and other sources to assess each state’s ability to achieve 1.) Safety; 2) Permanency; and 3) Well-being for children and families. Specifically, the C-CFSR is the county’s portion of this work for the state report.The completed CSA report will provide a shared understanding of Siskiyou County’s current strengths, needs and system improvement themes gleaned from various inquiry processes with stake holders, review of current data trends and strategic discussions. This process guides the completion of the five (5)-year Siskiyou County Children’s Services SIP.
