2 nd Quarter Report: No Report due this quarter.
3 rd Quarter Report: A work group, consisting of social services professionals, is reviewing the Supervisory Review Form (SRF) to
assure it properly measures specified outcomes for service delivery. This team of professionals provides a broad array of expertise in
child welfare policy, procedures and practice issues. The review form is being revised in accordance with state policy mandates. One
of the mandates is to incorporate family visits into the review guides to assure that visits are occurring between children and parents.
4 th Quarter Report: Partially Achieved. Efforts to revise the Supervisory Review Form continue, as described above, under 3 rd
Quarter Report.
5th Quarter Report: Achieved. The state has made the decision to discontinue using the Supervisory Review Guide and replaces it
with the Child Placement Services E & R Social Services Review Guide, developed by the Evaluation and Reporting (E & R) office.
This instrument is already developed and available to the staff. Also, it incorporates PIP requirements for Georgia. It encompasses the
same information contained in the previous Supervisory Review Guide, and addresses visitation under Item 26. The E & R Review
Guide is already available to staff and requires no additional training. As new staff are hired and trained, this is incorporated into their
training components as well.
