CONSENT AGENDA
BACKGROUND/SUMMARY:
San Benito County's System Improvement Plan (SIP) was launched on August 14, 2019 and spans 5 years, ending on August 14, 2024. San Benito County began preparation for the County Self-Assessment (CSA) with initial meetings in early March 2018. The CSA Core Leadership Team met regularly through August 2019, until the 2019-2024 proposed SIP strategies were finalized. Through this period, we engaged a variety of stakeholders including other County partners, community-based organizations, staff and the clients we serve. Focus groups were held with CPS parents, youth, caregivers, the court, management groups, and staff; and with Probation parents, youth, caregivers, the court, and Probation officers and supervisors.
The SIP is updated annually on August 14th of each year until its completion on 2024. This update provides the County with a mechanism through which it can report on progress toward meeting agreed upon improvement goals. Each quarter we will review data reports which include the safety, permanency, and well-being Child and Family Services Review outcomes described above. This regular monitoring will ensure that we can adjust our strategies when needed and celebrate our progress with our staff and stakeholders along the way.
