This September, DCYF launched their Child Welfare Social Work Licensure Training and Support Program. This program provides individual and group clinical supervision hours for participants. It will also support interested individuals through the process of obtaining their Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) or Licensed Advanced Social Worker (LASW) licenses.   

The DCYF Sky Valley office, located at 953 Village Way, Suite 100 Monroe, WA  98272, will be closed on Aug. 22, 2024 due to some maintenance. 

We apologize for any inconvenience. If you have any questions, contact your caseworker. To report child abuse or neglect, call 1-866-829-2153.
 

The number of children in out-of-home care is now only about half of what it was when the Washington State Department of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF) was created.

There are now 4,971 children and youth in out-of-home care in Washington State. This is the lowest it’s been since the 80s and a sharp contrast from the 9,171 it was in 2018.

Community providers, nonprofits organizations, state and local governments, tribal partners, caregivers, and community members with a shared interest of supporting and strengthening families to prevent child welfare involvement are invited to attend a FFPSA Collaborative Forum this Sept. and Oct.
