Child welfare caseworkers are among the most overworked government employees, they shoulder the responsibility for the well-being and safety of our most vulnerable population – children. The work of today’s caseworkers is limited by disjointed processes and siloed data. These aging, disparate legacy systems do not support their work in a timely and efficient manner. In an ideal state, caseworkers would be able to quickly investigate cases and work with families to create safe environments for children and youths to return to. But, with their out-of-date legacy systems and over 407,000 children and youths in the foster care system, that ideal state often seems like a pipedream.
