Assistant Secretary of Child Welfare Natalie Green and Child Care Licensing Supervisor Candace Latimer were recognized for their significant contributions during this year’s Governor’s Outstanding Leadership Award ceremony.
Natalie was recognized for strengthening child welfare services, reducing staff turnover and increasing placement with kin.
Six years after the Family First Prevention Services Act (FFPSA) was first signed into law, states are assessing and updating their soon-to-be expired, mandatory prevention plans with one unified goal: keeping families together safely.
This September, DCYF launched their Child Welfare Social Work Licensure Training and Support Program. This program provides individual and group clinical supervision hours for participants. It will also support interested individuals through the process of obtaining their Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) or Licensed Advanced Social Worker (LASW) licenses.
The DCYF Sky Valley office, located at 953 Village Way, Suite 100 Monroe, WA 98272, will be closed on Aug. 22, 2024 due to some maintenance.
