Virginia Social Services says it will fix broken foster care system after critical audit

The Virginia Department of Social Services has vowed to fix concerns with the state’s foster care system that are detailed in a new report by the Joint Legislative Audit and Review Commission.

“The [VDSS] fully supports the findings-based recommendations of the recent [JLARC] study of our foster care system,” Cletisha Lovelace, a spokesperson for VDSS, told Watchdog.org. “The challenges outlined within the report point to critical areas of needed improvement we are aware of and have been actively working to address. While many of the recommendations within the report are underway, we recognize the need to address other areas of program improvement with urgency in order to achieve better outcomes for the children we serve.”
