CPI 3.1 Completed Abuse/Neglect Investigations by County and Region FY2016-FY2025

ABOUT THIS CHART

Child Protective Investigations (CPI) is authorized to investigate abuse and neglect allegedly committed by a person responsible for a child's care, custody or welfare and to protect abused and neglected children from further harm. This authorization is derived from the U.S. Social Securities Act, Texas Family Code Sec,264.017 subsection (c), Human Resources Code, Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act, Indian Child Welfare Act and the Adam Walsh Act. 

CPI conducts either a traditional investigation or Alternative Response (AR). Traditional investigations and AR require caseworkers to assess safety and take needed actions to protect a child while assessing any risk of abuse or neglect in the foreseeable future. AR cases present a less adversarial more collaborative approach to working with families by allowing for family engagement along with other community supports to ensure child safety. AR differs from traditional investigations in that AR cases are Priority 2 cases involving victims who are age 6 or older,  there is no substantiation of allegations, no entry of perpetrators into the Central Registry (a repository for reports of child abuse and neglect), and there is a heightened focus on guiding the family to plan for safety in a way that works for them.

Completed investigations only include those cases conducted as a traditional investigation that were not administratively closed or merged into another stage. An investigation can only be administratively closed if all allegations have a disposition of administrative closure. A completed investigation can include more than one alleged victim. Completed investigations do not include any Alternative Response cases.   

FOOTNOTES

An investigation represents a report of abuse or neglect and can involve multiple children.
The data on completed investigations does not include investigative stages that were administratively closed or merged into another investigation.  All completed investigations have a case disposition and a risk finding.

Data are updated every 4 years and each update is provided as a separate dataset. For historical data, search for tree canopy 2006, 2010, and 2014. The NAIP imagery resolution for 2018 is 60cm (~2 feet). This is 4-band imagery (Red, Green, Blue, and Infrared bands) available in both true color and color-infrared. Tree canopy data is provided in both raster and vector GIS formats housed in a Geodatabase. Download and unzip the folder to get started. Please note, errors may exist in this dataset due to the variation in species composition and land use found across the study area.

Bluetooth Travel Sensors - Individual Traffic Match Files (ITMF)

For information about the City of Austin's Bluetooth travel sensor data, visit our documentation page:
https://github.com/cityofaustin/hack-the-traffic/tree/master/docs

Each row in this dataset represents one Bluetooth enabled device that detected at two locations in the City of Austin's Bluetooth sensor network. Each record contains a detected device’s anonymized Media Access Control (MAC) address along with contain information about origin and destination points at which the device was detected, as well the time, date, and distance traveled.

How does the City of Austin use the Bluetooth travel sensor data?
The data enables transportation engineers to better understand short and long-term trends in Austin’s traffic patterns, supporting decisions about systems planning and traffic signal timing.

What information does the data contain?
The sensor data is available in three datasets:

Individual Address Records ( https://data.austintexas.gov/dataset/Bluetooth-Travel-Sensors-Individual-Addresses/qnpj-zrb9/data )
Each row in this dataset represents a Bluetooth device that was detected by one of our sensors. Each record contains a detected device’s anonymized Media Access Control (MAC) address along with the time and location the device was detected. These records alone are not traffic data but can be post-processed to measure the movement of detected devices through the roadway network

Individual Traffic Matches ( https://data.austintexas.gov/dataset/Bluetooth-Travel-Sensors-Individual-Traffic-Matche/x44q-icha/data )
Each row in this dataset represents one Bluetooth enabled device that detected at two locations in the roadway network. Each record contains a detected device’s anonymized Media Access Control (MAC) address along with contain information about origin and destination points at which the device was detected, as well the time, date, and distance traveled.

Traffic Summary Records ( https://data.austintexas.gov/dataset/Bluetooth-Travel-Sensors-Match-Summary-Records/v7zg-5jg9 )
The traffic summary records contain aggregate travel time and speed summaries based on the individual traffic match records. Each row in the dataset summarizes average travel time and speed along a sensor-equipped roadway segment in 15 minute intervals.

Does this data contain personally identifiable information?
No. The Media Access Control (MAC) addresses in these datasets are randomly generated.

CPI 1.1 Texas Child Population (ages 0-17) by County 2016-2025

As recommended by the Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) to ensure consistency across all HHSC agencies, in 2012 DFPS adopted the HHSC methodology on how to categorize race and ethnicity. As a result, data broken down by race and ethnicity in 2012 and after is not directly comparable to race and ethnicity data in 2011 and before. 

The population totals may not match previously printed DFPS Data Books.  Past population estimates are adjusted based on the U.S. Census data as it becomes available.  This is important to keep the data in line with current best practices, but may cause some past counts, such as Abuse/Neglect Victims per 1,000 Texas Children, to be recalculated.

DFPS Employees 1.2 Staff Tenure on 31 August by Program and Staff Type FY2016-2025

Supervisor refers to employees in a specific job classification, who have the responsibility of supervising caseworkers, investigators and special investigators. 

Some past printed Data Books did not provide Tenure as Supervisor, but DFPS Tenure for Supervisors; therefore, the counts will not match the printed Data Books for those years. 

Tenure with DFPS represents tenure with the agency and not in a specific position.

NOTE: Child Protective Investigations (CPI), Child Care Investigations (CCI), and Child Protective Services (CPS) Staff are all included in this dashboard. 

Child Care Investigations (CCI), which is a part of CPI and include Day Care Investigations (DCI) and Residential Child Care Investigations (RCCI) are only available from 2018 onward. This is due to the split of those job functions from Child Care Licensing, which was a part of DFPS until 2017, when it was transferred to the Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC).

This addresses Texas Human Resources Code Section 40.0516, subsection (a)(11).

Percentage of all City Buildings eligible for an ENERGY STAR score with a score greater than or equal to 75

The EPA Energy Star Portfolio Manager is a nationally utilized online tool to measure and track energy and water consumption, as well as greenhouse gas emissions. The score, which ranges from 1 to 100 indicates the energy efficiency of a particular building. The score represents the percentile that a particular building falls in compared to similar buildings across the nation. A building with a score of 75 indicates that that building operates more energy efficiently than 75% of similar buildings.



Data Source: Raw utility data captured by the Office of Sustainability.

Calculation: Number of Buildings with an Energy Star of 75 or Greater / Total Number of Buildings Measured
