No warrant.
No court order.
They just walk into a private home at take the child … all on the say-so of a social worker.

ReplyDeleteAcross the country, children of color are present in the child welfare system at rates greater than their proportions in the population. This over-representation is referred to as “racial disproportionality.” In Washington State, a 2004 study of the child welfare system in King County found that American Indian (Indian) and Black children were overrepresented at all points in the system. This “racial disproportionality” is the reason many children of color are unnecessarily removed from their homes, and causing a struggle in the families reunification process. If you have been impacted by the child welfare system, please take a brief moment to complete this 10 question survey.
Your responses will be treated confidentially and will not be used for any purpose other than to conduct research on the Child Welfare System. Accordingly, any information you provide in respect will not be used in any way that is inconsistent with the purpose of this online survey. No information obtained from this survey will be disclosed to any outside parties. I intend to provide a report on my findings to my Quantitative Principles class at Seattle Central Community College. Please feel free to share the link to others who may have been impacted as well.

In New Hampshire,the majority of children taken are white. NH has a problem with Foster stranger's and adopter's taking in bi-racial and black children. Bi- racial children are most often drugged after being taken. This way their worth more money and more easily placed now that they're considered special needs. Also, when a child is bi-racial but looks white, the Mother is ordered by the caseworker not to tell anyone the child is bi-racial.
