State performs better in new child welfare report

A federal report card on how well the state Children's Administration is meeting national standards for child safety and welfare has been released, and while there is definitely room for improvement in almost every area, the administration performed better overall in the 2010 review than in the previous review.

I left a nice comment there-

One of my favorite sayings of all time is "You can't turn a turd into a steak, no matter how much A1 sauce you use". CPS is no steak.

On the NCCPR website, Richard has a wonderful white paper "THE EVIDENCE IS IN: FOSTER CARE VS. KEEPING FAMILIES TOGETHER: THE DEFINITIVE STUDIES." Well worth the read- http://www.nccpr.org/reports/evidence.pdf
