Florida’s State Plan for the Prevention of Child Abuse, Abandonment, & NeglectState Task ForceThe Interprogram Task Force is co-chaired by the Department of Children and Familiesand the Department of Health. Representation from other agencies and groups include:Agency for Persons with Disabilities, Agency for Workforce Innovation, CommunityAlliances, Community Based Care, Department of Community Affairs, Department ofEducation, Department of Elder Affairs, Department of Juvenile Justice, Department ofLaw Enforcement, Florida Housing Finance Corporation, Healthy Families Florida,Parents, Prevent Child Abuse Florida, Redlands Christian Migrant Association, and theUnited Way. The Task Force met three times during the 2006-07 fiscal year.The seven Task Force subcommittees meet on a periodic basis to track and reportstatewide progress on the sixty-plus Plan Objectives. Subcommittee participationextends beyond the members of the Task Force; other individuals participate based ontheir interest and expertise is specific topical areas. This has afforded the Task Forceinput from a wide array of individuals, programs, and agencies.6Local Planning TeamsLocal planning and implementation teams consist of members from local organizationsthat are comparable to the members of the statewide Task Force. Local teams neededassistance in including all the desired stakeholders, and the Florida Interprogram TaskForce assisted by providing local planning team leaders with lists of local contacts for thevarious organization and agencies that need to be included. These lists make it possiblefor local planning team leaders to know who to contact to ensure broad representation. Inaddition, some include representatives from news media, advocacy groups, courts, faithbasedorganizations, funding organizations, and Children’s Services Councils.A minimum of one local team exists for each Department of Children and Familiesdistrict, however because of the diverse nature of each district, some formed countybasedteams. Many local teams have also formed subcommittees to address objectives inparticular domains. Membership on local teams, based on the most current informationavailable to the Task Force is available on the web at:www.dcf.state.fl.us/childabuseprevention/4/1/09
