Enhancing Permanency for Illinois Children: Data and Focus Group Summary

 
 Volume/Number:  2010 June 
 Issuing Agency:   
 Description:  The Illinois Permanency Enhancement Initiative is a statewide effort to examine and address factors that hinder permanency and contribute to racial disproportionality among children involved with the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services (IDCFS). Data from the DCFS administrative data base and U.S. Census data were compiled by the Center for Adoption Studies (ISU), DCFS staff, and the Children and Family Research Center (UIUC). Committees comprised of DCFS staff drew upon these sources to summarize statistical data that described patterns of permanency achievement and disproportionality within each region. These patterns were described in presentations made to the stakeholders in community forums and permanency symposia focusing on each region. In June 2009, the Commission and its university partners published the Data and Focus Group Summary report. The data summarized in this report and presented at the community forums and symposia document evidence of lags in permanency and disproportionality of African-Americans in the Illinois child welfare system.
