Caseworkers

Welcome back to Taylor Talks!
​

Tonight, I thought I would talk a little bit about caseworkers. Each time you take in a foster child, you deal with at least two caseworkers.
The first caseworker you deal with works for CPS. They accompany the child from their home to the new foster home. This caseworker usually doesn't know much about the child's background, and can only tell the foster parents what the situation was at the time the child was removed from the home.


The second caseworker that you deal with works with DSS. This is the caseworker assigned to the child's case after the transfer to foster care goes through. This caseworker will work with you until either the child goes home or you are transferred to the adoption unit. This caseworker comes to your house once a month for a visit to check up on how the child is doing in the home. This is the person who answers any and all questions for you and helps to sort out any problems that arise.


If you end up going through to an adoption, you'll also work with an adoption caseworker. But starting the adoption process doesn't happen with most of the foster kids you take in, so you don't actually deal with an adoption caseworker too often.


We have been fortunate enough to have worked with plenty of great caseworkers over the years. Of course, every once in a while you end up stuck with a caseworker who you can't stand, but for the most part we've dealt with some great people.

I’d greatly appreciate it if you would share this blog with friends and family through your favorite social media sites. If you’re sharing on Twitter, don’t forget to tag me (@TayTayK02) and use the hashtag #TaylorTalks.

    About

    Picture
    My family started doing foster care when I was three years old. We took in nineteen children over the course of eighteen years, with our last placement leaving in December 2014. I'm the only biological child in my family, though my parents adopted five of my siblings.

    I love to share my perspective on the foster care system and share how my unique upbringing shaped my life.

    I'm also a Cast Member at Walt Disney World and lover of all things Disney! My career allows me the opportunity to find a little bit of Magic in life every day.


    I enjoy sharing my journey as a writer as well. Find my children's books on Amazon and keep following my blog for updates on future books that I'll be releasing!
