Child Protective Services (CPS) is an important state agency
charged with protecting children from abuse and neglect. Unfortunately, some
local offices of this state agency have been failing in their responsibilities.
In San Antonio’s Bexar County, 20 children died last fiscal year
while in the care of CPS-authorized caregivers; 15 have perished in just the
first eight months of this fiscal year. In Dallas, a CPS investigator was suspended
earlier this year amidst allegations of his sexual relationship with a minor.
It’s important to recognize that CPS isn’t the only way that
children are protected from personal injury. In some cases, a guardian ad litem
can bring a personal injury lawsuit on behalf of the child. If you’re concerned
CPS isn’t effectively protecting a child or young person you care about,
exploring this possibility may be a step you should consider.
