In this episode of The Kinship Crisis, we uncover what DFCS is legally required to do when a child enters foster care—and how often those rules are ignored. We break down the diligent search mandate, explain both federal and state laws, and ask the hard question: are agencies truly searching for family, or pushing adoption instead? If you’re a relative or advocate, this episode is essential listening.
