5 th Quarter DOCUMENTATION:<br />
Primary Foster Parent Ethnicity<br />
6 th Quarter Report: Next month (May) is when a major recruitment effort for both foster and adoptive homes will occur and will<br />
coincide with national, state and regional campaigns. A goal <strong>of</strong> 500 new families by the end <strong>of</strong> 2004 has been set. Already, some<br />
8,000 telephone calls have been made to follow-up with earlier inquirers. With the restructuring <strong>of</strong> DFCS and the organizational<br />
placement <strong>of</strong> the Office <strong>of</strong> Adoptions within DFCS (April 2004), recruitment efforts for resource families can be better focused. An<br />
automated report highlighting recruitment activities (successes and barriers) as well as data reflecting each step <strong>of</strong> the process from<br />
orientation to home approval will enhance efforts to recruit and maintain homes. Currently, private agency foster homes (which have<br />
not been included in the overall count) are being polled for their recruitment data. By the next reporting period, the targeted increases<br />
will be provided.<br />
