CPS

Child Protective Services (CPS) is a government agency that is dedicated to ensuring the wellbeing and safety of children. Their primary mandate involves responding to reports of child abuse or neglect. Tasks undertaken by CPS include investigating these reports, working to improve family situations, or in dire cases, implementing steps to remove children from potentially harmful situations. They also strive to provide suitable living conditions for neglected or abused children by coordinating foster care, adoption, or connecting families with resources to better care for their children.
