Policy and Regulations

Co-Chairs: Julie Paik , Deputy Director, Los Angeles CSSD and Jeanne Miskel , Sonoma County DCSS

Mission

The mission of the Policy and Regulations committee is to coordinate the county level development, discussion, review, and comment of proposed, existing, or necessary policies and regulations of the Department of Child Support Services (DCSS).

Goals

The Policy and Regulations committee establishes and maintains both a structure and process for regular and direct interface/dialogue with DCSS to ensure the Child Support Directors Association's (CSDA) issues and concerns are fully considered as part of the development and maintenance of DCSS policies and regulations.

Governance and Organizational Structure

The Board of Directors and designated executive officers appoint committee members. Appointments are two years each, without term limits, subject to board discretion.

The Policy and Regulations committee consists of:

  • Chairperson, who is also a County Director. At the direction of the board of CSDA, the chairperson communicates with state agencies on behalf of the board.
  • Vice Chairperson, who is responsible for assisting the chairperson in organizing general meetings of the committee, disseminating DCSS announcements for CSDA Director and committee membership review, and preparing committee comments for the DCSS. The vice-chairperson, in the chairperson's absence (or as otherwise needed) may serve in the capacity of chairperson.
  • 13 general members, who are assigned to various work projects and serve as subcommittee chairpersons. General members serve on special project assignments when the committee's presence is required to participate with anticipated special state department work groups.
    • 1 from each consortia system lead county
    • 2 from small counties
    • 2 from medium counties
    • 3 from large counties (members selected on the basis of county size shall be from counties not represented on the basis of interim system status)

Skill, knowledge, and county status of members will reflect CSDA general membership composition and will include as many varying expertise types as the board deems appropriate.

General Operation

The Policy and Regulations committee as a body meets at least once each quarter. The meeting length is limited to one day whenever possible and will be convened at mutually agreed upon locations.

The chairperson or co-chairperson will be available to attend the meeting and report to the CSDA board each month or as needed.
