Department of Children & Families Public Records

DCF has a designated RAO who will receive and respond to your public records requests.

“An Act to Improve Public Records” took effect on June 3, 2016, enhancing public access to information.

The Executive Office of Health and Human Services encourages you to use the form below to make a public records request (PRR) of the Department of Children and Families. This helps ensure the most expeditious and accurate response to your request. Otherwise, written requests may be delivered by hand, mail, email or fax (if available). While requests for public records may be made orally in person to an RAO, such requests may not be the subject of an appeal. Telephone requests may be accepted at the discretion of the RAO. The Department of Children and Families has designated the following employee as the Primary Records Access Officer (RAO) who will assist requestors in fulfilling their requests:

Steven Treat, Primary RAO
Title: Assistant General Counsel
Business address: One Ashburton Place, 3rd Floor, Boston, MA 02108
Business telephone: (857)-338-3018
Business email: DCF.RAO@Mass.gov

Only questions pertaining to the PRR process or a PRR status should be sent to the email account of the Primary RAO.
