Title IV-E Case Reviews

Public Consulting Group (PCG) is a national expert in Title IV-E regulation and eligibility determination guidelines. We have extensive experience in helping states navigate ongoing eligibility determination processes. We can help you ensure federal compliance with your case reviews and help enhance your title IV-E revenue.

Title IV-E Determination Process:
Completing a Title IV-E determination requires a detailed understanding of circumstances surrounding the removal of each child,the judicial findings relevant to the case, the financial means available to the family, and the capacity of the parent to support the child. PCG's understanding of the determination process enables us to provide quality assurance services to different state and local child welfare agencies across the nation. In addition to quality assurance, we can also assist states and counties in identifying opportunities for improving Title IV-E revenue.

PCG has created numerous tools based on the ACF Title IV-E Guide to assist our Title IV-E teams in performing case reviews. We are also familiar with the Social Security Act and regulatory citations that govern Title IV-E, as well as the guidance that ACF distributes through Program Instruction bulletins and the Child Welfare Policy Manual. Our child welfare policy experts always provide our clients with the statutory, regulatory, and federal guidance that supports our recommendations and our procedures.
