Specifications include, but are not limited to:. The purpose of this project is to review and manage and execute a process that will enable the Department of Services for Children Youth and Families (DSCYF) to recover funds on behalf of children who are eligible to receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and/or SSA benefits under Title II. The process will allow the Department to ensure that the recovery of SSI/SSA funds is henceforth a compulsory part of the case management process. While the method established permits the Department to screen any child in our custody, the focus would center primarily on children in the Division of Family Services (DFS) foster care, children aging out of DFS foster care or independent living, and certain children in the Division of Youth Rehabilitative Services (DYRS) level IV secure residential care.
