The Online Vacancy Matching System 
To be of effective use to Counties and Agencies, and therefore our children in care, please note the following regarding the Child and Placement Matching system:
- The vacancies that agencies have listed need to be kept up-to-date. It is easy to do from your agency control panel. More on this below.
- County staff should be aware of the system and encouraged to use it frequently, to find the best possible placement. Please reach out to your County partners and let them know that it exists.
- The system is intended for the use of public child welfare, juvenile probation and children's mental health agencies, and California Alliance member agencies only.

Information for Alliance Member Agencies Follows:
FOR MEMBER AGENCY STAFF - ACCESS IS SIMPLE:
- If you are registering your agency for the first time you will be its administrator. You can upload your agency logo or photo, and manage all the users of your agency, and all of its vacanies, from your Administrator Control Panel.
- If your agency is already registered just register yourself as a user, selecting your agency name from the dropdown options. You can add new vacancies, and edit or make inactive all the vacanies that you have listed from your Placement Availability Control Panel.
- Once you have registered, login and begin adding and managing your vacanies.
You may want to add "keywords" to your vacancy listing. These are words that describe behavioral or other challenges that the placement is prepared to address, but not ones that are not accepted. For example, you would use "Wheelchair accessible" rather than "No wheelchair access", County staff will be using keywords to find placements that meet some very specific needs.
The system will retain all your vacancy information, even if the placement has been made and you have closed (disabled) the vacancy. Then if you need to re-open (enable) it you do not have to enter the same information again.
Information for County Staff Follows:
