PUBLIC WARNING ANNOUNCEMENT
Families First Network (FFN)
We just want to let everyone know that we had a long running investigation into FFN.
Mainly certain aspects and individuals. This WILL name certain people and we urge them to be held accountable should you ever misstep into a case plan and have them assigned.
FFN will lie and do whatever it can to close a case as fast as possible - Due to having a "Too heavy Case Count". These people -- should you happen to get a dishonest case worker will play with your family and rip them apart unfairly to fill a checkmark on their clipboard. This organization was meant to help parents and children come back together when both parents are compliant. They have been caught lying outright to one parent's side of the family, to manipulate your co-parent into thinking the other side doesn't care or isn't complying -- when the opposite is true. They will send court appearances to mailing addresses that they know are incorrect. to set up the non-chosen reunification parent to make it look as if this damned parent just doesn't care to the judge -- All to close a case faster.
In one such situation, a parent with a case plan fell into drug use -- which is an absolutely good reason to have a case plan. But despite over a year record of a drug clean stretch and completing all needed classes was denied reunification. We eventually got all of this person's records and it was validated. FFN was alerted when this person sought their records and associated facilities were pressured to delete, lose them or to straight up lie to cover their tracks.
"Lindsey Moira Phillips" Is one such case worker that lied to judges outright about incomplete case plans, even attempting to date a male father she was the case worker for DURING the active case plan. When this father did not comply or even respond -- Miss Phillips would show up to his place of employment and complain about his service specifically -- the individuals only set of complaints ever -- in their seven years employed there, as the managers informed us. This is blatant abuse of power, and we have seen other female case workers taking advantage or attempting to take advantage of male fathers with implications for it affecting their case plans.
To them trauma and rough upbringing means you will be a bad parent, and they will decide against your reunification early and let you jump hoops for show.
"Frederick Sulzbach" was the domestic violence teacher for case plans, for the victims and perpetrators. But men usually always appeared in its perpetrator class and women as the victim -- EVEN WHEN either both parties were responsible for the domestic violence or even the woman being solely responsible. Fred would make you leave class or refuse to believe you if you disagreed about what put you there. Victim put in the wrong class? Too bad, comply and lie to support our fiction or you'll fail this class and never ee your children again. Fred, also withheld completed certificates to some seeking records of their completion. All his records are now not accessible because he had no one from FFN or CPS who had access to his records, only him. Fred has recently been arrested for Domestic Violence himself meaning records may be lost, for a class that taught accountability so fiercely, there sure was no one to keep Fred accountable or validate records.
There was a recent case that had a female case worker adopt a child off to a sexual offender an entire state away. --This is what really started to expose them.
This brings us to our final points - FFN absolutely had good, honest case workers woven into the staff a well. The company manager here in Pensacola ignored reports from those with active case plans, did not validate claims or manage properly. If you have an active case plan for any misstep, you obviously made a mistake and because of that -- they know they can lie about you and the paperwork just lists you as a drug addict, mentally unwell, or violent, or all of the above.
HOLD YOUR CASE WORKERS ACCOUNTABLE. EXPECT THEM TO LIE, KEEP RECORDS YOURSELF, OF EVERYTHING!
We believe it is legally allowed to record every interaction with DCF or FFN or caseworkers. You must inform them as you are doing so, but absolutely do it. ALWAYS DO IT. Validate in your county first on your own, then be ready for them to tell you it's not allowed or something. Check in with your co-parent's process yourself or expect to not know the truth.
As a group meant to help families who make mistakes, come back together and heal. Has been masking potential human traffickers, sexual misconduct between case worker and parents with case plans, discrimination against men or women, addicts, race or circumstance.
Human traffickers, or those repursuing child abuse will absolutely hide inside of FFN, CPS or DCF as an employee. It's the perfect cover. Especially inside of a non-monitored or accounted record keeping company like FFN.
To sum it all up, we echo every claim against FFN circulating. Not because it's entirely evil, but because it's lack of proper procedures hides the bad case workers right beside the good ones, and that they take away the voices of victims instead of actually helping them.
