Foster parents, caseworkers, attorneys, service providers, and other authorized participants in the state’s foster care system can use a new secure platform to share information and track updates.
The Communication & Operations Mobile Engagement Tool (COMET), from the West Virginia Department of Human Services (DoHS), is designed to strengthen communication and collaboration across the system.
By reducing delays and preventing miscommunication, the platform is expected to ensure that children and families receive timely, consistent support.
