ABC Files New Lawsuit
 
 
North Carolina

ABC’s latest lawsuit, on behalf of 9 North Carolina children, was filed last month against Governor Roy Cooper and North Carolina’s Department of Health and Human Services, who’ve allowed the state’s foster care system to operate in a state of crisis for years.
 
North Carolina’s foster care population is increasing while foster home capacity decreases. Children are placed into institutions at twice the national average, are shuttled between placements with disturbing frequency, and do not receive adequate services or necessary medical treatment or education. Caseworkers are not receiving adequate training or support, they cannot manage the crushing caseloads, morale is low, and turnover is outpacing recruitment. State leadership predicted, correctly, that this crisis would invite “a massive class action lawsuit”.
 

WE WILL CONTINUE TO FIGHT!!!
