The number of children in out-of-home care is now only about half of what it was when the Washington State Department of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF) was created.

There are now 4,971 children and youth in out-of-home care in Washington State. This is the lowest it’s been since the 80s and a sharp contrast from the 9,171 it was in 2018.

Community providers, nonprofits organizations, state and local governments, tribal partners, caregivers, and community members with a shared interest of supporting and strengthening families to prevent child welfare involvement are invited to attend a FFPSA Collaborative Forum this Sept. and Oct. 

Following joint discussions around safety and security challenges resulting from overcrowding at Green Hill School, Gov. Jay Inslee directed the Department of Corrections (DOC) to send staff to Green Hill School to augment staffing levels.
