TEAR's for Family Continuity

You know there is a problem with Child Protection Services (CPS) system when a law is passed in order to allow some (and I use that word lightly) transparency to evaluate CPS when child deaths occur. Strict confidentiality laws that protect the rights of children actually "shield CPS agencies from evaluation by legislators, the press, and the public who need to know the facts behind these deaths in order to prevent such tragedies in the future." You'll find the case they refer to in this article was a child death that occured here in Sacramento. Many child deaths have occured here in Sacramento simply because Sacramento County can't seem to complete the most basic and the most important of their tasks...an investigation. May I also remind you of the Amariana Crenshaw case that I have been posting about recently!
