The Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR) has established a digital transformation guide to assist agencies with modernizing agency operations and services with respect to electronic data and converting agency information into electronic data.

The purpose of the guide is to help Texas government take the next steps to advance digital transformation and improve the customer experience, no matter where the organization is on its digital journey.

Applications to participate in summer programs open on January 15 and close May 1. Changes in site information can occur through August. Summer meal programs operate mid-May through the end of August.

About Dataset Updates

TDA aims to post new program year data by April 1 of the active program year. Due to the short duration of the summer meal programs, dataset updates will occur every two weeks until the end of August.

All TDA datasets will have a final active update 90 days after the close of the program period. Datasets will be updated at six months and one year from the close of program period before becoming archived. Any data posted during the active update schedule is subject to change.

New Data Fields Available!

CE and site status (active/inactive), termination status, termination as of date, and CE application cycle (new/renewal) are now available on this dataset. These fields have been added to the last columns of the report and data descriptions have been added to the column metadata.

Children in DFPS custody are those for whom a court has appointed DFPS legal responsibility through temporary or permanent managing conservatorship or other court ordered legal basis. These children may be residing in substitute care or may be living with a parent, referred to as a return and monitor. DFPS legal responsibility terminates when a court orders DFPS custody ended or a youth turns 18, whichever comes first.

Substitute care - all children who are living in a DFPS out of home placement. It does not include children in DFPS custody who are living with a parent on a return and monitor. Unless otherwise noted, it does include youth over 18 who are in extended foster care but are not in DFPS custody.

Kinship care- a subset of substitute care that includes all children in DFPS custody who are living with a legal or blood relative or other individual who has a significant relationship with the child or the child's family known as "fictive kin."

Foster care - a subset of substitute care that includes all children living in a placement that has been verified to provide 24-hour residential care for a child, in accordance with Chapter 42 of the Human Resources Code and related regulations. These placements include foster homes, including kinship care where the caregiver has been verified, general residential operations (GRO), emergency shelters, residential treatment centers (RTC), and juvenile facilities.
