Sorry its last minute friends but if you wanna join the zoom in less than an hour you can hear the man with the plan share what he can do to bring our babies home for those who had the unfortunate experience on the wrong side of family court/CPS! Don’t think transparency wont be critical in achieving the goal or in keeping children safe like the system was intended to be designed for. That being said I’m personally organizing the initial starting state of MICHIGAN(don’t worry it’ll just be the first domino in the ripple effect this national crisis desperately needs) check out the info below and if you’re interested in a MI spot comment your county and specify If you wanna be an organizer to get the 10 familes needed per county, if just here for the show waiting for your state to follow suit, say “group”, and tonights zoom, say ZOOM!

Did you know about this,I didn’t !!

There is something called a Title IV-E Eligibility Determination Form in every foster care case.

This is the form the state has to complete to get federal funding for a child.

The state has to PROVE they followed federal law to get that money.

This form checks things like:

•Was the child removed legally (court order or voluntary placement)

•Did the judge actually say “contrary to the welfare”

•Did they make a “reasonable efforts” finding

•Was the placement properly licensed

•Does the state have legal responsibility

AND…

They even look at family income at the time of removal

Yes… income.

federal funding is tied to old poverty-based rules. 8.4A. TITLE IV-E, General Title IV-E Requirements, AFDC Eligibility cwpm.acf.gov

So two kids can be in the exact same situation…

…but one qualifies for federal funding and one doesn’t — just based on income.

Here’s why this matters:

If ANY of those required things are missing or wrong:

• The child is supposed to be “IV-E ineligible”

• The federal government is not supposed to pay

•The state loses reimbursement

This form is not just paperwork.

It forces CPS to show:

• They followed the law

• The court actually made required findings

• Everything was done correctly AND on time

You can ask for this.

You can request:

The Title IV-E eligibility determination form

The documents they used to complete it

Because that form will show:

• What CPS claimed

• What the court actually said

•Whether federal requirements were actually met

Once you know it exists…

you start asking very different questions.

If you’re in a case or know someone who is ,

This is something you should be looking at.

The Children's Bureau provides guidance to states, tribes, child welfare agencies, and more on the complex and varied federal laws as they relate to child welfare.

And in the midst, also snatched at 9:30 at night from the safety plan grandparents in place after being ripped from the loving parents. Oh and what’s further? The one parent couldn’t bear the pains it infringed on us and took their own life before she ever got to see him again 😭💔
