Webinars

Supporting Timely Assessments for Children in ODHS Custody

  • Slides
  • Recording (9/25/25)
  • This webinar introduces the purpose and value of each required assessment, provides scripts for communicating effectively with resource families, and highlights current systems and practices across Oregon. The session also spotlights a successful partnership between a CCO and clinic that consistently coordinate on-time assessments.

Supporting Timely Dental Assessments for Children in ODHS Custody

  • Slides
  • Recording (10/14/25) 
  • While CCOs are responsible for ensuring physical, behavioral, and dental assessments are completed on time, dental assessments are most frequently delayed among those struggling to meet the metric. This session explores why timely dental care is especially critical for children with histories of abuse or neglect and how it contributes to their overall well-being. It includes practical insights from a partnership between a CCO and dental office working together to improve outcomes.

Needs assessment

The Custody Metric Needs Assessment Final Report (March 2025) summarizes insights from CCOs, providers, and resource parents. The Transformation Center will use these results to plan technical assistance to support the metric.
