The Administration for Childrens Services (ACS) protects and promotes the safety and well-being of children and families through child welfare and juvenile justice services and community supports.

OCEP builds social capital through its externally facing strategies by 1) deepening the communitys awareness of ACS programs and services; 2) supporting ACS-funded coalitions and planning bodies; and 3) building local and citywide partnerships, with a focus on promoting primary prevention and child and family well-being strategies.
