Welfare Watch - December 31, 2011 - Kenny A Period XI Monitoring Report

The Kenny A Period XI Monitoring Report as released yesterday included the following conclusions:

 "During January 1 to June 30, 2011 period covered by this report the number of children entering Fulton or DeKalb county custody increased by 55 percent over the number of Period 10 entries. this is the largest number of entries during a reporting period since Period 9 (January 1 to June 2009).¹

Despite this increase, the State was able to sustain the smaller caseloads and the lower rate of maltreatment in care (Outcome 5) achieved in Period 10, and reduce the rate of re-entry to care (Outcome 4) to the Consent Decree standard. Performance remained steady in many areas; in some cases it was at or above the levels mandated by the Consent Decree, but performance appears to have reached a plateau below the Consent Decree standards in others."
