Child And Family Services Agency

Child and Family Services Agency (CFSA) is the public child welfare agency for Washington, D.C., responsible for protecting children from abuse and neglect and ensuring their safety and well-being. The agency provides services such as foster care, adoption, family preservation, and support for at-risk families, working closely with community organizations, the courts, and local government partners. CFSA is funded primarily through government appropriations and federal grants, with its performance and accountability closely monitored by city leadership and oversight bodies. The agency has undergone significant reforms over the past two decades, including exiting federal court oversight in 2020 after demonstrating improvements in child safety and permanency outcomes. Candidates should be aware that CFSA operates in a highly regulated, mission-driven environment focused on child welfare, family stability, and community engagement.
