he was appointing Stephanie Muth, a consultant and former Medicaid director at the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, to replace Masters.
Since the last report, DFPS has decreased the percentage of CPS caseworkers with overburdened workloads and improved the quality of investigations led by DFPS. Between January and June 2022, 13% fewer CPS employees had caseloads that exceeded 17 children per worker.
