CPS 2.10 Outcomes of Exits from DFPS Custody - 6 Months, 1 and 5 Years FY2016-2025
Tracks six month, one year, and five year outcomes for children who returned home from DFPS custody exiting CPS Conservatorship and subsequently alleged as a victim in an investigation within the noted time period.
Children in DFPS custody are those for whom a court has appointed DFPS legal responsibility through temporary or permanent managing conservatorship or other court ordered legal basis.
The six month period is calculated by following those children who exited DFPS Legal Responsibility within the first six months of the fiscal year (FY) and counting forward six months to see if the same child is a designated victim in an abuse/neglect child protective investigation.
For the one year outcome, those children who exited DFPS Legal Responsibility in the prior FY are tracked for one year and reported in the next fiscal year. The outcomes reported in FY 2018 had a beginning cohort from FY 2017.
The five year outcomes starts with the FY five years prior and follows each child for five years to track outcomes. FY 2018 would have a beginning cohort of those children who exited DFPS Legal Responsibility in FY 2013.
This does not track recidivism, which is defined by CPS as subsequent reason to believe finding in a new investigation or subsequent open case to FBSS or removal within a given timeframe.
This dashboard addresses the Texas Human Resources Code Section 40.0516 (a)(9)(A), (B), (C) and (a)(10).
