The purpose of this Local Commissioners Memorandum (LCM) is to provide the guidelines for the Annual Plan Update (APU) for the required county Child and Family Services Plan (CFSP). These guidelines are being provided separately and simultaneously to County Youth Bureaus and County Probation Departments. The APU is due December 15, 2009. Through this APU, counties will report on any changes being implemented in their current CFSP and make any necessary changes to their CFSP for the remaining period of their plan. As per the June 29, 2009 letter to LDSS Commissioners, Youth Bureau Directors, and Probation Directors referencing the 2010 CFSP, the current 2007-2009 CFSP is being extended through December 31, 2010 in order to implement CFSP improvements and efficiencies prior to the next required full submission. County Youth Bureaus and Local Departments of Social Services (LDSS) are required by statute to develop and submit to the State local multi-year plans for the provision of services and the allocation of resources. This CFSP also includes the required PINS Diversion Plan which is developed by LDSS, County Youth Bureaus and County Probation Departments.
