Enhanced Visual Implementation Roadmap

Interactive Tools for FFPSA Intervention Selection and Implementation Tracking

Version 2.0|Updated May 2025

Executive Overview

The Family First Prevention Services Act (FFPSA) represents a historic shift in child welfare funding, emphasizing prevention services to keep children safely with families. This enhanced implementation roadmap tool provides comprehensive resources for selecting evidence-based interventions, generating evaluation waivers, and tracking implementation progress.

Based on extensive research and analysis of existing tools like those from Chapin Hall, PCG Consulting, and the Annie E. Casey Foundation, this roadmap addresses critical gaps in current offerings while providing an interactive, customizable platform for agencies implementing FFPSA.

Evaluation Waiver Request Generator

For well-supported interventions, the FFPSA allows states to request a waiver from the evaluation requirement when they can demonstrate compelling evidence of effectiveness and implement continuous quality improvement processes. Our interactive waiver request generator streamlines this process.

Evaluation Waiver Request Generator

Generate a customized evaluation waiver request for well-supported interventions. This tool will guide you through the process of documenting evidence and creating a continuous quality improvement (CQI) plan.

Prevention Plan Development Suite

FFPSA requires states to develop comprehensive five-year prevention plans. Our Prevention Plan Development Suite provides templates, guidance, and interactive tools to streamline this complex process.
