CPYP County Presentations

In June 2006, Orange County held a training focusing on the role of the Emergency Response (ER) Senior Social Worker in creating life long connections for dependent youth. This training incorporated permanency related concepts which included finding the names, addresses and telephone numbers for family members and important others at the beginning phases of a case.
