ANDOVER, Mass.,
One of the biggest challenges faced by states is monitoring the hundreds of thousands of children in foster care served by child welfare agencies. Ohio faced significant barriers to executing a successful SACWIS including integrating different systems employed across 88 counties, overcoming the cultural shift to information sharing among social services agencies, and complying with Congressional SACWIS mandates and Department of Health and Human Services requirements. Perras' efforts have ultimately made child welfare in Ohio an integrated, uniform process that allows caseworkers to make timely, informed decisions in the best interest of the families and children in their care.
"This award is a reflection of the steadfast teamwork and innovation among our Case Management team and the state of Ohio," said James P. Regan, DRC's chairman, president and CEO. "Kathy's commitment and leadership are models of how industry can play an instrumental role in partnering with government agencies to improve the safety, permanency and well-being of children and families across the nation."
Federal 100 winners were nominated by Federal Computer Week readers and
selected by an independent panel of judges.
