Council Member Stevens seeks clarification on the anonymity of the foster care youth experience survey and the follow-up process. ACS representatives explain the survey's confidentiality and follow-up procedures.
- The survey is confidential but not anonymous, allowing for data aggregation and follow-up
- ACS asks for youth identities to enable follow-up if immediate action is needed
- Young people have multiple options for reporting issues, including their attorney or coach
- The agency aims to increase options and build trust with the youth they serve

The survey, I believe, in Nina, correct me.
1:30:55
It's it's confidential, non anonymous.
Althea V. Stevens
1:30:58
Okay.
Chi Osse
1:30:58
So
Steven Gordon
1:30:58
then we could aggregate that data.
1:31:00
Right?
Pedro Gonzalez
1:31:01
Yes.
1:31:03
Okay.
Althea V. Stevens
1:31:05
You wanna add to that?
1:31:07
Yeah.
1:31:07
But I swear you're a no man.
Jess Dannhauser
1:31:13
I see.
1:31:14
So we we wanna be able to follow-up with the young person, and so we asked them to include their identity.
1:31:22
Yeah.
1:31:22
I'm a okay.
1:31:23
Got that.
1:31:25
If there's something that needs immediate follow-up, whether some of the issues we were discussing earlier, if there needs to be a placement change or if they feel like they're in danger, they also do have, as we mentioned earlier, lots of options and places to go, whether it's their attorney, whether it's their coach.
1:31:42
So we're just trying to increase options and the trust with them.
Althea V. Stevens
1:31:46
Okay.
1:31:48
I think that's a lot of good.
1:31:49
Do you know what I'm saying?
1:31:52
Okay.
1:31:52
No questions.
1:31:53
Alright.
1:31:53
Well, thank you guys for being here with me today.
