We are writing to you to ask for your support in reuniting a family in Michigan. Four children, including one who has already been fully adopted, have been in foster care for three years, despite the fact that loving and fit grandparents are willing and able to provide them with a stable and loving home.

 

The children's parents' rights have been terminated, and the grandparents have been denied the right to be heard in child custody proceedings. We believe that this is a grave injustice and that it is in the best interests of these children to be placed with their grandparents, who have a proven track record of love and care for them.

 

We are calling on you to take action to ensure that these children are not denied the love and stability that they deserve. We ask that you:

 

Review the case of these children and ensure that their grandparents are given a fair and impartial hearing in custody proceedings.

 

Take steps to expedite the process of placing these children with their grandparents, who have already been proven fit to care for them.

 

Advocate for policies and procedures that prioritize the best interests of children in child welfare cases, including the importance of family preservation and the rights of extended family members to be heard in custody proceedings.

 

We believe that these children deserve to be reunited with their family and to be given the opportunity to thrive in a loving and supportive environment. Please join us in supporting their grandparents and in working to ensure that their best interests are prioritized in all decisions related to their care.

 

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter
