Oklahoma seems to be making progress toward almost all of the goals listed in a settlement agreement that ended a federal class-action lawsuit nearly eight years ago, according to an annual update from experts who monitor efforts to improve the stateâs child-welfare system.
To end federal court monitoring, the state needs to make âsubstantial and sustained progressâ toward all the goals for a two-year period, according to the settlement agreement that was reached in January 2012. At least for now, the state appears to be making progress toward all the goals except one, according to the update.
The state still is not making âgood-faith effortsâ to improve âmeasuring timeliness to permanency,â which involves how long it takes to make long-term arrangements for children in the custody of the Department of Human Services, according to the update.
