Dear CPA Providers:

Georgia law requires DFCS to maintain a registry of all substantiated cases of abuse and neglect on or after July 1, 2016 in a centralized information system (CPSIS). Your agency will now have access to information available in this Child Abuse Registry for licensing purposes. Effective November 21, 2016, all CPAs may begin submitting screening requests to DFCS's CPSIS Unit for the purpose of complying with licensing standards.

For more information about the registry and the process of submitting a screening request, please review the memo posted to GA+SCORE.

Thank you,

Residential Child Care Licensing
