Re: Mandated services for substantiated CPS cases

["Bethalyn Fox" <BFOX@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here in Ohio we have the ability to request Court Ordered Protective Supervision (COPS) from the Juvenile Court which court orders the service outlined in the case plan.

I need to know what states can go to court and get services mandated for
child abuse and neglect cases that have been substantiated but are not
needing removal of the children. Here in AZ families can refuse services and
the case gets closed. A large number of our substantiated cases close with
no services. We think this is really problematic and want to advocate for
change. Can anyone help. Thank you.
