All SPOCs:
The Office of Technology and Solutions Integration (OTSI) has decided to phase out the use of WebEx and will use, instead, Microsoft Teams exclusively for all virtual meetings. Child Welfare Digital Services (CWDS) plans to make the move to Microsoft Teams by Monday, September 30, 2024.
Organizations will see many CWDS project meetings either updated or cancelled and rescheduled to make the change to Microsoft Teams instead of WebEx. This communication is being sent out to explain the reasoning of the updates to the existing meeting invites.
Recipients of “forwarded” meeting invites will not receive the updates to the meetings and will have the previous WebEx link on their calendar if they were not included in the invite distribution. If you have previously forwarded an invite to a meeting that has since been updated, please be sure to forward the updated invite to those parties, or work with the meeting organizer to add them to the invite’s distribution list, if appropriate.
Action Required
Please accept the updated meeting invites and remove the canceled meetings, due to the change from WebEx to Teams, as they are received.
Forward any updated meeting invites that you have previously forwarded, if the new recipients are not included in the meeting’s distribution. The other option is to work with the meeting organizers to add the appropriate people to the invite.

CWS/CMS - ICPC State Contact Information Update - SCR 8992 | Oct. 15, 2024
All SPOCs and Technical Contacts:
The Interstate Compact on the Placement of Children (ICPC) requires certain forms to be completed to act as a contract and placement documentation for children being placed out of state into a relative, foster, parent, adoptive, or residential placement. ICPC forms must be created in CWS/CMS within a child’s case. These forms pre-populate with incorrect and outdated names and contact information for the Receiving State ICPC Compact Administrators. This issue affects the following forms: ICPC 100A, ICPC 100B, and the Financial Medical Plan.
SCR 8992 will update the Interstate Compact on the Placement of Children (ICPC) Administrator’s information for each state to “[Receiving State] ICPC Compact Administrator”. For example, an ICPC referral being sent to Nevada would pre-populate with the following: “Nevada ICPC Compact Administrator.” The address of the receiving state ICPC Office will be removed, as all ICPC referrals are now sent electronically to all 50 states, and most states no longer accept ICPC referrals by mail. This SCR will go live by Tuesday, October 15, 2024.

CWS/CMS: Data Quality Fuzzy Reports Available
All SPOCs and Data Quality Analysts:
The latest versions of data quality fuzzy reports for clients & placement homes are now available. Note that Substitute Care Provider (SCP) Fuzzy reports have been replaced by SCR8912 SCP Deduplication. The Client & Placement Home Fuzzy reports assist with data cleanup by providing a greater number of potential duplication matches, using “fuzzy” matching criteria, than would be possible on the more restricted results on the Semi-annual merge reports. Additional information on CWS/CMS data cleansing activities and benefits, including fuzzy reports, is found on the Data Quality Portal.
To help the Data Quality team to keep track of requests for fuzzy reports, a simple online request form has been developed. A new request must be submitted each time to receive the updated fuzzy reports. The Data Quality Fuzzy reports request online form is located at 2024 September DQ Fuzzy Reports Request.
Action Required
If a county wants to request a Data Quality Fuzzy Report (for Client or Placement Home), please complete and submit the online request form located at 2024 September DQ Fuzzy Reports Request.
