Foster Care Review Board

FCRB adds value to the foster care review process, as indicated by the judges and commissioners who participated in the Auditor General’s survey.  However, FCRB can improve its value by ensuring more of its reports are submitted in time for court hearings, and by better identifying services (such as behavioral health services) that foster children need but are not receiving. Finally, FCRB should further enhance its volunteer management practices by developing a diversity plan, and report to the JLBC its retention of federal Title IV-E reimbursements.
