Service Responsibility. Pursuant to Section 409.988(1)(a), Florida Statutes, the Lead Agency will identify services being provided to the children and families served. The Lead Agency and the Department shall complete an assessment of current services provided, identify any needed services not presently provided and what would be required to provide the services. The assessment will include a review of family support services, safety management services, treatment services, and child well-being services to address the complex needs of all children, including teens, and caregivers served within their local systems of care. The Lead Agency and the Department will identify gaps in services being provided and the reason for such gaps. Once gaps are identified, the Lead Agency may elicit the assistance of the Department in securing the resources to fill the identified gaps in service, and the Department will have an opportunity to review the supporting data collected by the Lead Agency prior to providing assistance.
