Child Protective Services

CPS is legally mandated to protect the children who have been abused or neglected, or who are at risk of abuse and/or neglect. It also provides or coordinates family services to reduce or alleviate the risk of abuse and maltreatment. CPS includes the Foster Care Program, which is a long-term placement in a family setting for children who will remain under DYS custody for a long period of time. This may include Kinship Placement (family) placement under approved conditions.

Juvenile Probation Services

The Juvenile Probation Unit monitors court ordered conditions of juveniles places under probation. It also provides for case management services as part of the youth rehabilitative programs to prevent further delinquent or criminal activities.
