Here in the state of New Hampshire, several families are outraged at the Child Protective Services, and several have made some appalling claims. According to their website, New Hampshire DCYF receives more than 15,000 reports of suspected child abuse and neglect annually. Approximately 8,000 of those reports are assessed each year. (http://www.dhhs.nh.gov/dcyf/cps/index.htm) As of October 31st 2010, there were 707 children placed in out-of-home care. (http://www.dhhs.nh.gov/ocom/documents/dcyf.pdf ) The department makes claims to giving “support” to families, but in most cases that so-called support is becoming questionable.

There seems to be no standard set of definitions for a case worker to go by when determining cases, and the qualifications for the case workers to be able to make such determinations is also a question that comes up for families that have been caught on the wrong side of the fence.

Here in New Hampshire there is a petition sponsored by Dorothy Knightly, Hope Nardone and Pat Patterson which outlines specific assessments that need to be done to DCYF as an agency. The petition calls into question the actions taken by the agency. and also brings to light the need to assess the qualifications of the determining caseworkers. Upon viewing the petition there are a number of heart-wrenching comments on the damages that have been done to individuals and families.
