The Honorable, The Legislature:
On behalf of the Department of Health and Family Services, I am transmitting Wisconsin's Child Abuse and Neglect Report for Calendar Year 2003. In many ways, 2003 represents a transition for child welfare in our state.
Governor Jim Doyle and the Department of Health and Family Services place a high priority on keeping children safe in their own homes and providing adequate services when children must be removed to keep them safe. Throughout 2003, the Department joined with county and tribal child welfare agencies to build a statewide consensus for change in our child protection programs. Staff from tribal, county and state government, as well as advocates and private sector providers joined to create a program Enhancement Plan in order to strengthen the policies and practices that child welfare staff use to respond to abused and neglected children. Our plan was also a response to federal findings that indicated areas in which Wisconsin and all states needed to improve. We completed work on the plan in October 2004 and officially began its implementation on November 1, 2004. Implementation of Wisconsin's plan will be guided by a multidisciplinary team of more than 80 individuals, many of whom were part of the original planning team.
In 2004, Governor Doyle also identified a number of initiatives to enhance child welfare services in Wisconsin through his KidsFirst agenda. These initiatives, as well as the action steps identified in our Program Enhancement Plan, will have a significant impact on the course of child welfare services in the state.
