Analyst

THE SELECTED CANDIDATE(S) WILL BE OFFERED A SALARY BETWEEN $64,137.00 – $73,758.00.

THIS POSITION IS ONLY OPEN TO CANDIDATES WHO ARE PERMANENT (NOT PROVISIONAL) IN THE CIVIL SERVICE TITLE OF PRINCIPAL ADMINISTRATIVE ASSOCIATE.

The Administration for Children’s Services (ACS) protects and promotes the safety and well-being of children and families through child welfare and juvenile justice services and community supports. ACS manages community-based supports and foster care services, and provides subsidized child care vouchers. ACS child protection staff respond to allegations of child maltreatment. In juvenile justice, ACS oversees detention, placement and programs for youth in the community.

ACS’ Division of Child and Family Well-being (CFWB) designs and executes strategies to support caregivers, children, and communities, so they can thrive and enjoy self-determination. A critical piece of CFWB’s portfolio is the operation of the City’s subsidized child care voucher system -- one of the largest child care assistance programs in the country. ACS provides vouchers to tens of thousands of low-income and child welfare-involved families, allowing parents and caregivers to access affordable childcare at the provider of their choice while they pursue work, education, or training.

The CFWB Policy and Compliance unit performs all tasks related to CFWB policies and procedures, ensures compliance with federal, state and local laws and regulations that govern our funding streams, devise and/or assists with all internal policies and procedures. The unit also provides quality assurance (QA) to proactively safeguard compliance and standards and risk assessment to address all child care subsidy fraud referrals made by a variety of internal and external sources. The QA and risk assessment activities extend to oversight of Child Care Block Grant funding administered by the Department of Education.

Reporting to the Quality Assurance Manager for Eligibility in the Division of Child and Family Well-Being (CFWB), the Analyst will conduct:

- Regular quality assurance reviews and analyses of randomly selected case records to assess internal controls

- Appropriateness of approvals and determinations and completeness of documented case files.
