This counts placement types, not unique children in substitute care. Children will be duplicated by moving from foster care to other substitute care or by relative to non-relative placements. For example, a child who spent a portion of the year with a relative, but the rest with a non-relative would be counted twice.

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.

Paid foster care - a subset of foster care where DFPS is making foster care payments.

This project is part of a larger plan to transfer commonly requested TJJD data onto the Texas Open Data Portal. This will allow for greater efficiency in sharing publicly available information and answering Public Information Requests (PIRs). This dataset provides an overview of TJJD’s average daily population (ADP) by location type since FY 1980. Location types include State-Operated Secure, Halfway Houses, Contract Care, and Parole.

This is a list of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) and Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) license holders.

This project is part of a larger plan to transfer commonly requested TJJD data onto the Texas Open Data Portal. This will allow for greater efficiency in sharing publicly available information and answering Public Information Requests (PIRs). County-level referral data is the source for most statistics in the “State of Juvenile Probation Activity in Texas” Report, which is published yearly. This report “provides information regarding the magnitude and nature of juvenile criminal activity and the juvenile probation system's response. This information is offered to assist the state's effort in improving the juvenile justice system and reducing juvenile crime in Texas” (State of Juvenile Probation Activity in Texas, 2020).

This project is part of a larger plan to transfer commonly requested TJJD data onto the Texas Open Data Portal. This will allow for greater efficiency in sharing publicly available information and answering Public Information Requests (PIRs). Average Daily Population (ADP) data provides the daily population of specific TJJD locations of the following types: Institutions, Halfway Houses, Contract Services, Orientation and Assessment, Parole, Other Parole (Out of State Parole) and Interstate Compact.
There are two levels of measurement of ADP on this data set. The first, titled MTD ADP (Month to Date), provides a month to month population count; it does NOT take into account the previous month's population count. Each month's population count is specific to that month.
The second, titled YTD ADP (Year to Date), provides a rolling average of ADP; it includes the previous month's population and averages it out with that month's population count.
Lastly, both Calendar Years (CY) and Fiscal Years (FY) are provided on this data set. TJJD’s fiscal year starts in September and ends in August of the following year.

The Archived Project Information dataset displays detailed project information such as location, type of work, and estimated cost for projects scheduled for letting within the designated two consecutive fiscal years.

Its contents are refreshed hourly with data from TxDOT’s transportation program management system, TXDOTCONNECT.
Archived Project Information dataset includes previous Project Information data outside of Project Information dataset.
