Description

Question: Should DHS provide more support to CUAs, given their unique vulnerability? Alternatively, should DHS be allowed to override CUA decisions if their agency is open to risks that DHS is largely protected against?

Donte and I (Renaldo McKenzie) discuss this issue which was one of the may key points raised during a recent interview with Mr. David Fair, Deputy Chief at Turning Points for Children and a past Deputy Managing Director of the City of Philadelphia. However, on this podcast episode we discuss this particular point which was also an article exploring the issue in The NeoLiberal Post at https://renaldocmckenzie.com entitled, Child Placement and Responsibility: Exploring the Role of Philadelphia’s CYS-DHS, dated Oct. 5, 2023.


#FootNote: The Department of Human Services (#DHS) is the government agency responsible for overseeing child and youth family services within the @PhiladelphiaGov. Within this framework, #CommunityUmbrellaAgencies (#CUAs) play a pivotal role as the #casemanagement model under the #IOC (#ImprovingOutcomesforChildren) initiative. Under this program, #CYS (#ChildYouthandFamily Services) case management services are outsourced to non-profit or private agencies to efficiently operate and manage these critical services.
