System Blueprint Update

The Texas Department of Family and Protective Services (DFPS) is excited to announce the release of the January 2025 update to the "Texas Child-Centered Care (T3C) System Blueprint".* *

The "T3C System Blueprint" is a guide to help Texas foster care stakeholders understand the framework and parameters for T3C’s service packages and add-on services. DFPS will continue to update the "T3C System Blueprint" quarterly (January, April, July, October) to include revisions (if necessary) and provide detailed information related to transition and implementation of the T3C System. During the transition to this new system, we will learn lessons and make modifications for continued improvement, and the "T3C System Blueprint" will be the primary way we communicate those changes. Among the updates to this version of the "T3C System Blueprint" are details regarding the Full Credential process, to reflect the refinements made to the Applications in response to lessons learned during the initial roll-out of the Interim Credential process.

You can find the updated version of the "T3C System Blueprint", and all previous versions of the document, on the DFPS Texas Child-Centered Care webpage [ [link removed] ]. You can also find a change log that details the changes made in the most recent Blueprint.

Survey

To ensure efficiency of the Credentialing review process, the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services (DFPS) is asking that providers complete a brief online survey [ [link removed] ]. This will assist DFPS in assessing the progress that providers are making in their preparations to apply for T3C Credentials and help project anticipated workload for Credentialing staff. The information requested in the survey will capture the time frame(s) between December 2024 and August 2027 that providers are currently intending to submit applications for Interim or Full Credentials.
