The number one priority for Child and Family Services continues to be the safety and wellbeing of children and youth. Steady progress in transforming the Child and Family Services System to better meet the needs of children and youth was made since the December update. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused delays in the ongoing completion of some quality reviews.
