Show Notes
In a significant turnaround, New Mexicos Children, Youth and Families Department, once criticized for endangering foster kids, has made substantial progress in the Kevin S. civil rights case. Under Governor Michelle Lujan Grishams leadership, new appointees have boosted compliance on medical checkups and ended the practice of housing children in office buildings. The state and foster kids lawyers now collaborate, with a foster parent advisory board set to address training, licensing, and support issues. Despite progress, repeat maltreatment rates remain high, indicating a need for further prevention efforts. Both sides remain committed to lasting improvements for vulnerable children.
