A state or county-wide census of children in out-of-home care can:
  • Verify the placement and safety of every child
  • Provide accountability to legislators, the public, and other stakeholders
  • Assist in meeting the standards of the Child and Family Service Review and the Program Improvement Plan
  • Develop an understanding of nearly any aspect of foster care or provider needs
  • Gather data on permanency, safety, or child well-beings
  • Provide professional development through a research/learning paradigm
