Why do DCFS and DYC have to bother with the RMS process?
A. In order to claim federal funds for administrative purposes, the Divisions must use a statistically valid method to identify costs that can be claimed. If DCFS and DYC aren’t utilizing the Random Moment Sample porcess to get a “snapshot” of worker activities during the month, another method must be implemented, such as keeping daily time sheets specifying all activities in 15-minute increments.
