Preventing the need for foster care in D.C.

Preventing the need for foster care in D.C.

Note: don't let them fool ya. Somebody is making a profit from every kid they have in the system.

In the District of Columbia, when a child is removed from the custody of one parent, the child may go live with another parent after a quick investigation and approval by the Child and Family Services Agency (CFSA) — usually within 72 hours. The child is only placed in foster care if the other parent is deemed unfit.
