The Children’s Bureau, within the Department of Health and Human Services, hosts a searchable database of state Child and Family Services Plan (CFSP) and state Annual Progress and Services Report (APSR).
- The CFSP is a five-year strategic plan that sets forth the vision and the goals to be accomplished to strengthen the states’ overall child welfare system.
- The APSR provides annual updates on the progress made toward accomplishing the goals and objectives in the CFSP. Completion of the APSR satisfies the federal regulations by providing updates on a state’s annual progress for the previous fiscal year and planned activities for the upcoming fiscal year.
