Child Protective Services (CPS) and Child Protective Investigations (CPI) provide regional liaisons to the Texas Juvenile Justice Department (TJJD) and to local and county juvenile probation departments (JPD). The liaisons are responsible for:

  • Working with DFPS statewide and regional leadership to address questions, issues, and concerns raised in the regions by CPS, TJJD, or local/county JPDs.
  • Reviewing monthly TJJD reports in IMPACT (the DFPS case management system) and forwarding information from those reports to caseworkers.
  • Ensuring that caseworkers maintain accurate information in IMPACT about CPS children adjudicated to TJJD or county juvenile probation departments.

For further information, see the Juvenile Information Request Protocol.
