All Smiles – Nine new PSSF network agencies were represented at a PSSFWeb basic training session on January 23 . The session included a review of procedures, timelines and requirements for monthly online reporting.
Welcome to Promoting Safe and Stable Families (PSSF).
This Federally-funded program is administered by Georgia's Department of Human Resources (DHR), Division of Family and Children Services (DFCS). DHR and DFCS are committed to building a stronger, results-based child welfare system which prevents child abuse and neglect, protects children from further abuse, and promotes permanency for children in safe and stable family settings.
Promoting Safe and Stable Families provides funding, training and technical assistance to community-based, non-profit organizations and county DFCS departments to support services that promote the safety and well-being of children. PSSF is an important source of funding because it supports a wide array of services which both prevent and remedy difficulties that bring families to the attention of the child welfare system.
PSSF is committed to protecting and nurturing Georgia's children. With the help of prevention and early intervention family support services, children can be safe in their own homes. Placement prevention or family preservation services help minimize the removal of children from their homes in time of crisis. If they must be removed, children can return to homes that have stabilized, and where relationships are stronger, with the help of reunification services. And for those children for whom returning home is not possible, adoption or foster care transitional support services help them adapt successfully to a safe and permanent home.
