Hello Child Placing Agency (CPA) partners,

On Jan. 29 WA CAP implemented the following updates as part of our quarterly release schedule.

In the next couple months, changes will be made to Family Team Decision Making (FTDM) and Shared Planning Meetings (SPM).  These meetings are now called Youth and Family Meetings and will follow a new meeting model.

Thanks,

Ron Effland
Foster Care Senior Administrator
