4 4 Agenda Promise and Risks Funding Allocation County Flexibility System Evolution Recommendations Questions This presentation is based on a June 2013 report entitled Looking After Our Kids: How the 2011 Realignment Changes the Funding, Oversight, and Evolution of the Child Welfare System in California.
5 Realignment! Governor Brown proposes: A vast and historic realignment [of government services in order to] ensure that local needs are met in the most sensible way [... and to] allow governments at all levels to focus on becoming more efficient and effective, facilitating services to be delivered to the public for less money.! Incentive for efficiency same service for less money?! Improve flexibility and innovation in program designs.
6 6 The Promise Funding Dedicated revenue stream (isolation from General Fund) County Flexibility Efficiency through flexibility Same level of service for less money System Evolution Policy and program designs innovate and improve
7 7 The Risks Funding Level of Supply Equity of distribution County Flexibility Money diverted from child welfare Fiscal incentives misaligned with best practices System Evolution Policy process excludes some stakeholders Experimentation without learning Does the structure of realignment contain adequate safeguards to mitigate these risks?
8 8 Recommendations Allocation of Funding County Flexibility System Evolution 1 - Add Criteria to the Allocation Formula for Growth Funding 2 - Create a Trigger for the Use of the Reserve Account 3 - Provide Enhanced Public Reporting Tailored to Realignment 4 - Strengthen the System Improvement Plans 5 - Continue State Oversight of Child Welfare Expenditures 6 Support County Stakeholders
9 9 Agenda Promise and Risks Funding Allocation County Flexibility System Evolution Recommendations Questions This presentation is based on a June 2013 report entitled Looking After Our Kids: How the 2011 Realignment Changes the Funding, Oversight, and Evolution of the Child Welfare System in California.
10 10 Realignment Creates a Block Grant for Child Welfare! How is child welfare funded?! Federal, state and local sources! Discretionary v. mandatory programs! Matching rates v. bock grants! Realignment* funds child welfare directly from sales and Vehicle License Fee (VLF) revenues.! Federal funds still match state expenditures for IV-E eligible kids, but the state sources are a fixed pot, to be spent flexibly, as in a block grant.! Fears about funding:! Will IV-E eligibility look-back mean gradual erosion of total funding base for child welfare under realignment?! Inadequate funding?! Inequitable distribution? * The legislation that enacted realignment were two budget trailer bills: SB 1020 (fiscal superstructure) in 2011, and SB 1013 (child welfare) in 2012.
11 11 Decreasing IV-E Eligibility
12 12 Is Revenue Adequate?! Funding level is based on FY usage (adjusting for recession cuts).! Now funding is protected from the General Fund with a dedicated sales tax and VLF revenue stream.! How will sales tax base compare to GF?! Is sales tax source more volatile than General Fund source?! Reserve Account: will any county actually use it?
13 13
14 14
15 15 Equity Should Be Addressed! Prior to realignment: matching rates based on caseloads, with adjustments for legislative priorities, cost of living, etc.! Wide differences in funding amounts: in CWS allocations alone the range was between $2,743 and $14,023 per case in FY ! Post-realignment: Uses FY distribution as the base.! but needs will change!
16 16
17 17 Equity Should Be Addressed! The Governor (DOF) and CDSS, in consultation with CSAC, have the ability to adjust the allocation formula.! So what will be the criteria for distributing funds now that caseload is not part of the equation?! LAO proposal: simple demographics! Appendix to the report shows that population of children in poverty who result in large shifts in funding towards the inland counties.
18 18 Recommendations Allocation of Funding County Flexibility System Evolution 1 - Add Criteria to the Allocation Formula for Growth Funding 2 - Create a Trigger for the Use of the Reserve Account 3 - Provide Enhanced Public Reporting Tailored to Realignment 4 - Strengthen the System Improvement Plans 5 - Continue State Oversight of Child Welfare Expenditures 6 Support County Stakeholders

20 20
21 21 Monitoring: State-Only Funded Programs! Specialized Training for Adoptive Parents (STAP)! Supportive Therapeutic Options Program (STOP)! Transitional Housing Program Plus (THP+)! Options for Recovery! Kinship Support Services Program! Emancipated foster youth stipends in the Independent Living Program! SB 1013 requires public notice & action by the Board of Supervisors before any significant reductions in these programs.! CDSS annual report to legislature highlights county spending on these programs.
22 22 Monitoring: Federally Ineligible Youth! Counties now have a very strong fiscal incentive to treat IV-E ineligible youth differently:! Is casework less intensive?! Are IV-E ineligible kids diverted more frequently?! Are outcomes changing?! In some cases, this is prohibited under law.! CWS/CMS doesn t differentiate between IV-E and non IV-E youth, and CDSS no longer reports out the shares on a county basis.
23 23 County Flexibility! Revenue is fixed, so incentive is to reduce caseload: Caseload falls, freeing up funds Entitlement growth squeezes out flexible funds Discretionary State funding Discretionary State funding Mandatory Mandatory ! Realignment is a policy choice to move the child welfare system in California towards family preservation.

27 27
28 28 How Do We Know? Monitoring and Oversight! AB 636! California Child Welfare Indicators Project (CWS/CMS)! System Improvement Plans! Realignment sets cycle to 5 years, instead of 3.! Fiscal Reporting! Transfer of funds between realignment accounts! Use of realignment reserve funds! Fiscal Reporting! Counties use the same claiming mechanisms using CEC (time-study) and CA 800 (assistance)
29 Monitoring: Mandatory Spending Reductions 29! Mandatory spending is the largest potential source of flexible funds.! Three mechanisms:! Reduce entries! Reduce time in the system! Reduce cost per case! Some of the C-CFSR performance measures capture the risks, others don t.
30 30 Monitoring: Mandatory Spending
31 31
32 32 Fiscal Data Outcomes? Performance Measurement Challenges:! Measuring abuse depends on discovering it.! Outcomes are only tracked for those who enter the system, while they are in it.! Empirical research is limited (few randomized control trials).! Multiple simultaneous interventions.! Child welfare interventions depend on outside factors.! Access to data from other spheres (education, health, etc.) is limited.
33 33 Fiscal Data Outcomes?
34 34 Example: Caseload Ratios! Should be a measure of intensity of services being delivered.! SB 2030 workload review says caseloads were too high.! CDSS provides no measures for this in the SIP! Labor relations concerns?
35 35
36 36 Recommendations Allocation of Funding County Flexibility System Evolution 1 - Add Criteria to the Allocation Formula for Growth Funding 2 - Create a Trigger for the Use of the Reserve Account 3 - Provide Enhanced Public Reporting Tailored to Realignment 4 - Strengthen the System Improvement Plans 5 - Continue State Oversight of Child Welfare Expenditures 6 Support County Stakeholders

38 38 System Evolution! Child welfare is not on auto-pilot.! Role of the legislature:! Budget hearings! CDSS annual report! Future adjustments to address equity! Role of the Counties:! The action is now at the County Board of Supervisors.! Transparency of budget process varies widely.
39 39 Agenda Promise and Risks Funding Allocation County Flexibility System Evolution Recommendations Questions This presentation is based on a June 2013 report entitled Looking After Our Kids: How the 2011 Realignment Changes the Funding, Oversight, and Evolution of the Child Welfare System in California.
