Q: What are the requirements from the State for entering Child Abuse Central Index (CACI) information and uploading CACI documents in CWS-CARES? Would CWS-CARES need to hold all of the "administrative record," or just those available in CWS-CARES currently, request and notices.

A: Regarding State requirements for entering Child Abuse Central Index (CACI) information in CWS-CARES, there are no requirements from the State for entering that information. In CWS/CMS, there is currently an ID page that includes fields for entering this information if a disposition is changed to a grievance. CWS-CARES will also include these fields.
