and the common good
Division of Child and Family Services building strong
communities through strengthening families.
Child welfare agencies in Nevada believe families are the
primary providers for children’s needs. The safety and
well-being of children is dependent upon the safety and
well-being of all family members. Children, youth and
families are best served when staff actively listens to them
and invite participation in decision-making. We support
full implementation of family centered practice by engaging
families in child and family teams and offering
individualized services to build upon strengths and meet the
identified needs of the family.
