A Critical Look at the Child Welfare System Reunification Plans

Kevin Norell is one of the newer foster care caseworkers in the Utah Division of Child and Family Services, hired to satisfy child-welfare reform laws and the terms of a recent lawsuit settlement in Utah.
According to Norell, the state asks a lot of parents who want their children returned home. They have to find a job, find housing, all of which can be “tough to do for anyone in Salt Lake County.” Parents are ordered into therapy, parenting classes, perhaps drug rehabilitation, and they have to find time to visit with their children.
“Even an organized parent might have trouble with all that. And many of these parents are anything but organized,” says Norell.[1]
