Child Protection and Permanency (CP&P), formerly known as the Division of Youth and Family Services (DYFS), is New Jersey's child protection agency within the Department of Children and Families. CP&P investigates allegations of child abuse and neglect and arranges for child protection and family treatment services. The Child Abuse Hotline receives reports 24/7 which are sent to local CP&P offices for investigation. CP&P contracts community agencies to provide services like counseling, parenting classes, substance abuse treatment, foster care and residential placement. If a child is at risk, CP&P may place the child in foster care and later pursue adoption if family reunification is not possible.
