Kathy Perras Honored for Pioneering Rollout of First, Newly Built
Web-Based Statewide Child Welfare System ANDOVER, Mass., March 10
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Dynamics Research Corporation
(NASDAQ:DRCO) today announced that Federal Computer Week (FCW) has
named Kathy Perras to its list of top 100 leaders who had the
greatest impact on the government community in 2007. The Federal
100 award recognizes individuals from government, industry and
academia who significantly influenced how the federal government
buys, uses, or manages information technology in the past year.
Kathy Perras was honored by FCW for her leadership in helping to
pioneer the rollout of the first newly built, Web-based statewide
automated child welfare information system (SACWIS) developed in
nearly a decade for the state of Ohio. Perras provided executive
oversight for the effort to institute Ohio SACWIS, allowing county
children's services agencies to make informed decisions that help
to protect and ensure better outcomes for children and provide
needed services to their families. One of the biggest challenges
faced by states is monitoring the hundreds of thousands of children
in foster care served by child welfare agencies. Ohio faced
significant barriers to executing a successful SACWIS including
integrating different systems employed across 88 counties,
overcoming the cultural shift to information sharing among social
services agencies, and complying with Congressional SACWIS mandates
and Department of Health and Human Services requirements. Perras'
efforts have ultimately made child welfare in Ohio an integrated,
uniform process that allows caseworkers to make timely, informed
decisions in the best interest of the families and children in
their care. "This award is a reflection of the steadfast teamwork
and innovation among our Case Management team and the state of
Ohio," said James P. Regan, DRC's chairman, president and CEO.
"Kathy's commitment and leadership are models of how industry can
play an instrumental role in partnering with government agencies to
improve the safety, permanency and well-being of children and
families across the nation." Federal 100 winners were nominated by
Federal Computer Week readers and selected by an independent panel
of judges. Kathy Perras, along with the other Federal 100 winners,
will be honored at the 18th Annual Federal 100 Awards Gala on March
24, 2008, in McLean, Va. About Dynamics Research Corporation
