Fw: RE: PLEASE CONTACT THE DHHS IN WASHINGTON FOR YOUR COMPLAINT AGAINST STATE AGENCIES

Jane Boyer


This was a response to a via e-mail submission for the GAO FraudNet, although it was a individual filing the claim for alleging the wrongful removals of children from a home because they could not investigate the case as a individual claim, unless it was a legislative committee member or Governor, or some one like the Secretary of the Kansas Department of Social Services, a Mayor, or a Senator a DA or Attorney General. Let's put this response to the test and flood the DHHS in Washington to see what response we get back. Everyone call the
1-800-447-8477 to complain about what's going on in your state.

A response to anonymous submission claim:
This responds to your Internet submission to the GAO FraudNET alleging the wrongful removal of children from a home by the Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services and the Kaw Valley Center in Kansas. We have assigned this matter control number and request that you cite this number in any future contact with our office.

We reviewed your information and found that the situation you describe is not within the scope of any on-going GAO work. Therefore in accordance with GAO FraudNET policy to forward instances of wrongdoing to executive agencies for appropriate action, we have referred your concerns to the Department of Health and Human Services, Office of the Inspector General (DHHS/OIG) for their review and whatever action they deem appropriate. The DHHS/OIG can be contacted at 1-800-447-8477, via email at hhstips@oig.hhs.gov or in writing at: DHHS/OIG; 330 Independence Avenue, S.W.; Washington, D.C. 20201.

For your information, GAO is responsible for assisting the Congress in carrying out its oversight responsibilities pertaining to government programs, activities and functions. Generally, this involves examining the programs and operations of federal departments and agencies, rather than reviewing singular allegations of wrongdoing or poor performance in connection with specific matters.

Thank you for your interest.
