DCS Talks to our Director of Permanency Planning, Lindsay Coleman about Full Disclosure
Manage episode 330177083 series 3356865
Join DCS Talks to discuss the importance of Full Disclosure with Director of Permanency Planning, Lindsay Coleman. When a child comes to the attention of the DCS and is potentially in need of out-of-home care, DCS takes responsibility to engage the family in identifying relatives or kin who may support the child and family. As part of the process of building a team around the family, DCS informs caregivers about the different types of legal permanency options and provides relatives or kin the Disclosure of Legal Permanency Options Video and the Guide to Full Disclosure of Permanency Options. Ms. Coleman provides information about this process, resources, where to find the video and discusses ways relatives and kin help to reduce trauma for children who are in the care of DCS.
