The NYC Administration for Children's Services (ACS) investigates over 5,000 reports of child neglect every month.  So, if a caseworker knocks on your door asking to see if your child is safe, you are not alone.  And you don't have to do this by yourself.

An ACS investigation can be scary, can seem to last forever, and can have very serious consequences for your life and your family.  I can help you achieve the best possible outcome with this ACS case.

Indicated Cases: If ACS determines that there is some credible evidence of neglect or abuse, the investigation can be indicated against you.  This will go on your record in the State Central Registry (SCR) and, if you work with children, could cause you to lose your job or prevent you from getting the job of your choice for years or decades in the future, not to mention barring you from being a foster parent or adopting a child.

Child Safety Conferences:  If ACS schedules a Child Safety Conference for your family, you need to take immediate action to prepare.  A Child Safety Conference means that ACS is seriously concerned for the safety of your child and the conference may result in legal actions against you, including the possibility of your child being removed from your home and placed in foster care.  There are steps you can take to be prepared.

What can you do?  Call me now.  You don't have to do this alone.  My services are confidential, affordable, and will help you navigate the maze of bureaucracy, investigative interviews and conferences that are jeopardizing your family's future.  I can help you understand what ACS is looking for to close the case, what you should and shoudn't discuss with the caseworker, whether you should let the caseworker in your home, how to prepare for a conference with ACS, and I can help you appeal an indicated report with the SCR.
