Working with DCS to Get Your Child Back

On today's show, we discuss Working with DCS to Get Your Child Back. A live recording from our Fifth Annual Court & Custody Conference with Janet Bell and Casey Melsek from Department of Child Safety. Sadly, it's not uncommon for children to be removed from their homes. If it happens to you, do you know what to do to protect your rights as a parent, to keep your children safe while they're away from you and how to get them back home? Law enforcement and protective services typically act on reports of abuse or child endangerment. The reports may come from a parent, neighbor, teacher or a complete stranger. If the police respond to the home after being called there, like on a domestic violence incident, they may remove the children if they notice mistreatment or neglect.  Guest Speaker Information:  Janet Bell and Casey Melsek Department of Child Safety Phone:602.255.2500 Website: http://dcs.az.gov                                                     WWW.FATHERMATTERS.ORG
