Mục đích
The California Children’s Services (CCS) Advisory Group was established as a forum for stakeholders to provide input and recommendations to the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) on the implementation of the CCS program. The group, which consists of caregivers, advocates, CCS providers, CCS administrators, health plan leadership, and policy experts, ensures that policy and program decision making reflects family experience, addresses persistent gaps, and evolves in response to emerging challenges. With temporary statutory authority, the Advisory Group is at risk of sunsetting in December 2026.
Children Now will advance a targeted policy and advocacy strategy to extend and strengthen the CCS Advisory Group by developing legislation focused on more meaningful family and stakeholder participation, clearer expectations for engagement with DHCS, and transparent reporting to the state Legislature.
