CFE Tools App

Providing an engaging way for tools to be completed while meeting people where they are at - often on their phones!

DFPS Legacy staff can download the app from the "Comp Portal" on their agency iPhone.

About CFE

Collaborative Family Engagement is Texas' team-based approach between local CASA programs and CPS, SSCCs, and other child welfare professionals to engage, find and work with family members and fictive kin in the creation and development of a lifetime network for young people in the foster care system. CFE provides creative tools for volunteers and caseworkers to use with the child, parent or relative to learn about who they identify as important people to them, and to more fully hear their voice and story.

For more information, please visit this website.
