Adoption and Foster Care Analysis and Reporting System (AFCARS)
Adoption and Foster Care Analysis and Reporting System (AFCARS)
was established to provide data that assists in policy development and program management. Data can be used by policymakers at the federal, Tribal and state levels to assess how many children are in foster care, reasons why they enter, how they exit and to develop strategies to prevent their entry into foster care.
Beginning with issue 634 the SSIS Update will include a new section titled AFCARS & SSIS Repository Corner.
Articles will encompass:
- Updates and information regarding AFCARS changes, compliance and specific errors.
- Reminders, tips and warnings to help agencies improve AFCARS data entry.
- Updates on reports and Worker Repository developments to help agencies identify, improve and correct AFCARS entry.
- Helpful AFCARS and Repository resources.
- Updates about statewide AFCARS performance.
