Q: Is Binti considered a Fully-In-Scope External System? If so, will all data, documents and images be migrated from Binti to the CWS-CARES platform prior to Go-Live?

A: Binti Resource Family Approval (RFA), Placement, and Family Finding functionalities are considered fully in scope for CWS-CARES Version 1 (CARES V1).

Please note, the RFA module used by Los Angeles County providers for Foster Family Agencies is not in scope for CARES V1.

For more details, please refer to the Binti to CWS-CARES V1 Data Conversion Fact Sheet located in the Child Welfare Digital Services (CWDS) External Systems Portal. If you have additional questions, reach out to the External Systems Data Conversion (ESDC) team.
