The New Mexico State Capitol. Photo by cmh2315flIn 2023, New Mexico took away more children because of housing than it took because of physical and sexual abuse combined.When the federal government finally released long-awaited data this month concerning how many children every state put into foster care in 2023, New Mexico had a distinction as ugly as it was predictable. While most states showed modest declines in the number of children they to…Read Article

NCCPR in the New York Daily News: How the Daily News changed NYC’s child welfare

A half century ago today, child welfare reform began when the Daily News stunned the city with the first installment of a six-part series about the system by reporters William Heffernan and Stewart Ain, headlined “Big Money, Little Victims.” Then as now, New York City has a harmful child welfare system. While foster care has declined, children still are taken needlessly. And a massive child-welfare surveillance state remains, with children still…New York State · New YorkRead Article

NCCPR in the Missouri Independent: Hailey’s story illustrates Missouri’s failure — doing too little to preserve families

The Missouri Children’s Division has accomplished something most of us would have thought impossible: They got all sides in the debate over abortion to agree.  They agree about Hailey, the young mother profiled in an outstanding story in The Independent. They agree that the behavior of the Children’s Division in surveilling, harassing, traumatizing and sometimes tearing apart Hailey’s loving family was, in the words of State Sen. Mary Elizabeth …Abortion · MissouriRead Article

In the hope that facts really do matter, some hard facts about CASA

When you swing an ax madly and chop down virtually everything, once in a while you’ll hit something that really should be cutA whole lot of research shows that the Court-Appointed Special Advocates program, the most sacred cow in child welfare, does harm. So do facts matter? Or does wallowing in a warm, fuzzy narrative about overwhelmingly white, middle-class amateurs saving overwhelmingly poor disproportionately nonwhite children matter more? L…United States · United StatesRead Article

Mass. family police try an end-run around the State Legislature on child welfare and drug use

But don’t worry, the “cannamoms” will still be safe The Massachusetts family police agency, the Department of Children and Families, recently solicited comment (presumably only because they had to) on a proposed change to regulations defining child abuse. The change is an attempt to get around a wise decision by the State Legislature. Indeed, it is entirely consistent with the way DCF helped the Massachusetts “Child Advocate” try to sucker a spe…Boston, Massachusetts · BostonRead Article

How the Kansas “child welfare” agency makes hundreds of foster children “disappear.”

Even the Wizard of Oz couldn’t do that. But at last, we’re getting a peek behind the curtain. Seventeen years after we first raised the issue, an ugly little practice that leads to hundreds of needless foster care placements in Kansas every year finally is getting some attention – though far from all of the attention it deserves.  The Kansas Legislature passed, and the governor signed, a bill that may slightly reduce the number of times this pra…Kansas, United States · KansasRead Article

West Virginia does NOT underspend on “child welfare” – it MIS-spends

West Virginia probably spends on child welfare at a rate anywhere from 9% to 44% above the national average.  All posts in this series are available here. West Virginia Watch is at it again.  That’s the publication that has published thousands upon thousands of words about the child welfare system in the Child Removal Capital of America – and not one of those words that I can find comes from a parent who lost a child to foster care.  That’s the …West Virginia · West VirginiaRead Article
