Description: In January of 2008, Governor Kaine appointed Ms. Peggy Feldmann to the position of Chief Applications Officer (CAO). This appointment was to both address the findings contained within the Auditor of Public Accounts report on IT Governance and to ensure our continued excellence within the area of information technology management. The office of the CAO provides the Commonwealth of Virginia with an improved approach to managing IT governance and our business portfolio. Recognizing the current budget constraints, and striving to leverage existing Commonwealth resources, the Governor requested the Information Technology\Investment Board (ITIB) assist in developing an operational plan to improve oversight and management of IT governance and portfolio management. Working together, the Chief Information Office (CIO) and CAO were able to develop an operational plan to better align responsibilities and optimize management, efficiency and productivity from our information technology investments. The efforts will better align the Commonwealth’s business model and IT strategy, improve maintenance and operations planning, enhance enterprise application efforts, create data standards, increase transparency in our return on investment, and provide a comprehensive IT governance model for managing all the application resources of the Commonwealth.

Title: The Virginia Parole Board — The Board’s mission is to grant parole to those offenders whose release is compatible with public safety.

URL: https://vpb.virginia.gov/

Description: The Virginia Parole Board was established by law in 1942. It is composed of five members appointed by the Governor to serve at the pleasure of the Governor. The General Assembly has given the Parole Board authority to grant parole, to deny parole, to detain parole violators, and to revoke parole. Virginia Code Section 53.1-136 empowers the Board to make the following decisions for persons who committed their crime prior to January 1, 1995: to conditionally release offenders who are parole eligible, and found suitable for release to revoke parole and post release supervision of those under supervision found to be in violation of the terms of their release, and to investigate, prepare reports and advise the Governor, when requested, on Executive Clemencies. Virginia Code Section 53.1-40.01 also makes the Parole Board responsible to act on geriatric requests for conditional release. Following the Board's decision to grant an offender parole, the offender must agree to abide by specific conditions in return for the opportunity to serve the remainder of his or her sentence under supervision in the community. This creates a contractual agreement between the Parole Board and the offender. Parole supervision is carried out for the Virginia Parole Board by the probation and parole officers of the Virginia Department of Corrections.

Title: Transformation - Children's Systems Services

URL: http://vafamilyconnections.com/

Description: In December 2007, 13 Virginia localities representing over 40 percent of the Commonwealth’s children in foster care, were invited by the Secretary of Health and Human Resources, Marilyn Tavenner, to launch the Council on Reform. The group included a broad membership from both state and local child serving agencies. Secretary Tavenner’s charge to the group was to collaboratively plan and implement a set of critical reforms at the state and local levels including: To adopt a state-wide philosophy that supports family-focused, child-centered, community-based care with a focus on permanence for all children, To establish a state-level practice model focused on family-centered care and permanence that is reinforced by a uniform training program for resource families as well as local staff in DSS and CSA (integrated with DMHRSAS practice model), To create and implement a statewide strategy to increase availability and utilization of relative care and non-relative foster and adoptive placements to ensure that children can be placed in the most family-like setting that meets their needs, and To create a robust performance monitoring/quality assurance system to identify and measure outcomes, monitor quality of practice, and improve accountability. These critical reform areas were identified as the missing links in Virginia’s child welfare/child serving system. Later termed “building blocks” and adapted slightly, these strategies continue to be among the key drivers for improved outcomes for children in foster care in Virginia. While the Transformation is much broader than the work done in CORE, CORE was a starting place and a new model for state/partnership in Virginia. While still in the midst of major Transformation effort, the CORE group has made remarkable improvements on the key outcomes in a short period of time including: A 35.5 percent decrease in the congregate care population between December 2007 and May 2009, A 10.6 percent increase in kinship placements in the same time frame, Nearly 69 percent of children discharged in SFY 2009 (to date) went to permanent homes compared with 61 percent in SFY 2008. Localities in CORE include: Charlottesville, Chesterfield, Dinwiddie, Fairfax, Henrico, Newport News, Norfolk, Prince William, Richmond City, Roanoke County, Roanoke City, Virginia Beach and Washington County.

Description: One of the oldest schools in Virginia and the second of its kind in the world, the Virginia School for the Deaf and the Blind (VSDB), located in historic and scenic Staunton, VA, was established by an act of the Virginia General Assembly on March 31, 1838. As the school celebrates more than 170 years of continued excellence in educating deaf and blind children, it remains at the forefront of educational technology. The school utilizes some of the latest and most advanced audio-visual equipment and disability tailored computer applications in its classrooms to provide its students with the best education. Now, as in 1839, the arms of the school are open wide for the deaf and blind children of Virginia. The 2009 General Assembly established the Virginia School for the Deaf and Blind (VSDB) in Staunton as a state agency with its own board of visitors independent of the Virginia Department of Education, effective July 1, 2009. The legislature directed the superintendent of public instruction to designate a VDOE staff member to serve as consultant to the VSDB Board of Visitors on matters pertaining to instruction, federal and state special education requirements and school accreditation.
