Termination of parent rights

["Munsch, Joyce" <JMunsch@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I would like to find some statistics on the number of cases in which
parental rights are terminated each year.  I understand that there was a
Federal legislative change in recent years that moved from mandating
reunification of families at all cost to making it easier for parental
rights to be terminated after a specific period of time (one year, perhaps?)
if reunification did not seem achievable.
