The CDSS has recently implemented a technical support structure specifically designed to support the planning and implementation of local CPP’s. CDSS’ new technical support structure includes a “lead agency” cohort model and each opt-in county has been assigned to a cohort with either CDSS, Strategies TA, or Casey Family Programs as a lead agency for technical assistance and support. Lead agencies can provide subject matter expert resources and will serve as a first point of contact to assist with CPP development in partnership with CDSS. Technical support requests can be submitted by emailing FFPSAPreventionServices@dss.ca.gov or by submitting a request using the FFPS Program CPP Support Request Form which is located on the FFPS Overview Website.
