Thus far, state agencies have submitted a total of 68 budget change proposals (BCPs) — although more will come out, especially following Gov. Gavin Newsom's budget revision in May*.
The single largest request amounts to $256.5 million for the Child Welfare Services - California Automated Response and Engagement System (CWS-CARES), a joint BCP from the California Department of Social Services, California Health and Human Services Agency and the Office of Technology and Solutions Integration. The project, which first received funding in 2018, seeks to modernize the state’s Comprehensive Child Welfare Information System and bring it into federal and state compliance.
This BCP seeks more funding for “state, county, and vendor resources; hardware/software; and core constituent participation to continue the [design, development and implementation]” of the project.
Below is a searchable, sortable table of every such request published on the Department of Finance website, including the dollar amount requested, the project title and a link to the document.
