County child protection problems revealed

County child protection problems revealed


Winona County Commissioners took a look last week at county child protection data generated by the state. They were hoping to learn more about what went wrong with the service during 2011. The state reported child risk and safety were adequately addressed in only 37.5 percent of child protection cases managed by county workers during 2011. They also found that workers had failed to meet mandated response times for the most serious reports of abuse in 33 percent of cases reviewed.
