Am LA CASA volunteer said she was “triggered” when the program director used the words “social justice” or “racial justice. Instead of deciding the problem was with the volunteer, they … well, it’s CASA so I’m sure you can guess www.nccprblog.org/2025/06/la-c... #fostercare #childwelfare

ICYMI: Instead of creating “guardrails” for hidden #fostercare, as lawmakers promised, Virginia just created two versions of this awful practice. They need to go back and fix it: www.nccprblog.org/2025/06/virg... #childabuse #childwelfare

A bill in the Maine Legislature would require judges to balance alleged harm of a home to the harm of #fostercare before tearing apart a family. This story from The Maine Monitor illustrates perfectly why it’s needed www.nccprblog.org/2025/06/in-m... #childwelfare #childabuse #mepolitics #meleg

ICYMI: 25 years ago Marcia Lowry brought one of her #fostercare McLawsuits in Tennessee. It failed spectacularly How much did she learn? Last month she brought basically the same lawsuit – sometimes almost word for word! See if you can tell which is which: www.nccprblog.org/2025/06/chil... #tnleg

25 years ago, Marcia Lorwy’s Tennessee McLAwsuit ignored wrongful removal; the lawsuit failed. But a new lawsuit makes clear Marcia and A Better Childhood have learned nothing from that blunder www.nccprblog.org/2025/06/chil... #fostercare

Sure that whole “definition of insanity” line has become a cliché, but when you bring a #childwelfare lawsuit, it fails spectacularly and then you bring a lawsuit that’s almost identical – sometimes word for word! –what do you think is going to happen? www.nccprblog.org/2025/06/chil... #fostercare

ICYMI: 50 years after @nydailynews.com published “Big Money, Little Victims” a series about private agencies trapping kids in #fostercare to keep per diem payments flowing there are fewer little victims & payment system is changing. But more needs to change. www.nydailynews.com/2025/05/13/h...

NYC has a harmful #childwelfare system; But it is less harmful than most others and less harmful than it used to be. That’s thanks to decades of hard work by family defenders and family advocates, and it started with a newspaper series 50 years ago today www.nydailynews.com/2025/05/13/h...
