CT DCF Abuse/Neglect Reports and Allegations by Town and State Fiscal Year

This dataset contains aggregate data concerning abuse/neglect reports accepted for a response from DCF.  Traditionally, DCF has had only one manner of responding to such reports, which was a mandated Child Protective Services (CPS) Investigation.  As of April 2012, DCF began responding to low-risk reports through a voluntary Family Assessment Response (FAR) process.  Reports handled through a FAR response still contain allegations that meet the statutory definitions of neglect, but they do not receive a decision concerning whether they are substantiated or not.  This policy has resulted in fewer substantiated allegations since its implementation, but the agency continues to serve as many or more families reported for abuse/neglect.
Municipal Fiscal Indicators 2010-2014

Municipal Fiscal Indicators is an annual compendium of information compiled by the Office of Policy and Management, Intergovernmental Policy Division (IGP), Municipal Finance Services Unit (MFS). The data contained in Indicators provides key financial and demographic information on municipalities in Connecticut.

Municipal Fiscal Indicators contains the most current financial data available for each of Connecticut's 169 municipalities. The majority of this data was compiled from the audited financial statements that are filed annually with the State of Connecticut, Office of Policy and Management, IGP Division.

Juvenile Justice Policy and Oversight Committee Equity Metrics - First Felony Dispositions

Connecticut's Juvenile Justice Policy and Oversight Committee (JJPOC) has developed this dataset and this dashboard to monitor and examine juvenile justice system involvement across the state for youth of different races, ethnicities, and genders.

The following metrics were chosen to understand key points in the juvenile justice system:

1. Delinquent referrals
2. Non-judicial handling
3. Disposition of a first time felony
4. Detention

Note: this dataset and the dashboard are being developed in phases, and as of 1/27/2023 they include data on Metric 1: Delinquent referrals and Metric 2: First Time Felony Dispositions. Additional metrics will be added over the course of 2023 and 2024.
Northeastern States County Boundary Set

Northeastern United States County Boundary data are intended for geographic display of state and county boundaries at statewide and regional levels. Use it to map and label counties on a map. These data are derived from Northeastern United States Political Boundary Master layer.
This information should be displayed and analyzed at scales appropriate for 1:24,000-scale data. The State of Connecticut, Department of Environmental Protection (CTDEP) assembled this regional data layer using data from other states in order to create a single, seamless representation of political boundaries within the vicinity of Connecticut that could be easily incorporated into mapping applications as background information. More accurate and up-to-date information may be available from individual State government Geographic Information System (GIS) offices. Not intended for maps printed at map scales greater or more detailed than 1:24,000 scale (1 inch = 2,000 feet.)
Revaluation Years by Town, 2021-2025

A revaluation program is undertaken to secure a more equitable distribution of the tax burden, to bring the assessment level up to date, and to modernize assessment procedures. Furthermore, Connecticut law requires that all property be revalued for assessment purposes periodically. A revaluation is required to be completed every five years. The purpose of this requirement is to insure uniformity in real property valuations by eliminating inequities that may have developed since the previous revaluation.
COVID-19 Contact Tracing: Attempted and Successful Interviews by Week - ARCHIVE

Note: This dataset has been archived and is no longer being updated.

Contact tracing is the process of contacting all people who have tested positive for COVID-19 or have had contact with someone who tested positive. The software for contact tracing in Connecticut is called ContaCT. ContaCT is used for monitoring the health and wellbeing of people affected by COVID-19 and assists in facilitating timely and accurate contact tracing. 

This dataset includes the number of attempted and successful contact tracing interviews in the ContaCT system by week. This includes interviews for cases (those who have tested positive for COVID-19) and contacts (those who have been exposed to someone with COVID-19). 

Data presented are based on a weekly reporting period (Sunday - Saturday). All data are preliminary and are subject to change.

Additional information on COVID-19 Contact Tracing can be found here: https://portal.ct.gov/Coronavirus/ContaCT
Discharged Children With Permanency Maintained 12 Months:  Annual Trend By Race/Ethnicity

This dataset contains aggregate data concerning the number of child placement episodes that ended with a legal discharge from DCF care, and for whom the end of a 12 month observation period (starting with their legal discharge date) terminated during the SFY.  These figures are broken out by the DCF Region and Office responsible for the child's care, by their Race/Ethnicity, and by whether another placement episode for that child began within 12 months of their discharge from care or not.  It would be appropriate to roll up the data from all variables across multiple time periods, as they represent specific events in the lives of these children.  These data form the basis of measurement for the Juan F. Consent Decree Exit Plan Outcome #11: Permanency Maintained (No Re-Entry), although those figures are reported to the DCF Court Monitor on a quarterly rather than annual schedule.

Eelgrass Beds 2006 Points

Eelgrass Beds 2006 Set:

This data layer was created by the USFWS National Wetlands Inventory, Region 5. Delineations of 2006 eelgrass beds were completed on the eastern Connecticut shoreline to the Rhode Island border. Fisher Island, Plum Island, and the northern shore of Long Island, New York were also included in this work. Spring 2006 True Color aerial photography was taken at a scale of 1:20,000 and used for detemining location and delineation of eelgrass beds. Extensive field work was conducted by the USFWS Region 5 Southern Coastal Zone program in September, October and November, with 290 field sites. The 2006 photography was scanned and geo-rectified using 2004 ADS 1/2 meter true color imagery.

This dataset contains point data for eelgrass verification field work completed in 2006 by the US Fish & Wildlife Service. Field work was conducted during September, October and November of 2006. The resulting information was used extensivley in the creation of the accompanyng polygonal eelgrass dataset.
