Si el Departamento quiere hablar con usted sobre sus hijos, significa que han recibido un informe de que sus hijos pueden estar en riesgo de sufrir daño.

El Departamento:

The Department won’t automatically remove your children from your care just because there’s domestic and family violence. Children are only usually removed as a last option.

After the Department investigates a report, they may decide everything is okay. Sometimes they may want to work with your family so your children stay in your care while steps are taken to improve their safety.

It’s important to try to work with the Department, even if you don’t agree with the reasons they are getting involved with your family. See tips for working with the Department.
