The New York City agency assigned to protect children from neglect is being accused of neglect by attorneys for the Legal Aid Society. Heather Saslovsky represents a 17-year-old girl in ACS care who has been missing since December of 2018 after running away from an emergency children’s housing center. “ACS has no idea where she is and hasn’t looked for her,” Saslovsky said. Saslovsky said ACS case workers repeatedly failed to show up in court or provide any documentation of efforts to try and find the teen over a period of months. . Laquana Clotter told the I-Team, “No one from ACS ever came to my door.” She says that last fall, she told an ACS case worker she would take in the girl and provide whatever background was requested. Clotter claims no one followed up and that the case worker dissuaded her from getting involved. “She said that if my friend’s daughter messed up in some way, they could remove my kids from my home.” Top Tri-State News Photos ASSOCIATED...

YOU CAN'T HAVE A LAWYER IN THIS CASE  ACS workers who visit parents at the home will often advise parents that they are not allowed a lawyer because the case is not in court. They may also use language like "you don''t need a lawyer". This is simply untrue. The right to counsel in New York is heavily protected by the courts. ACS workers despise dealing with attorneys and in fact ACS policy is that ACS workers do not speak to attorneys. ACS workers will only speak to parents. What is the reason for this policy? Government agents of all types speak to attorneys on a regular basis to resolve cases. ACS workers are very poorly trained and the vast majority have not been on the job very long. Turnover at ACS is rampant and many people quit after realizing the true dysfunction of the agency. BROOKLYNACSLAWYER.COM NYCACSLAWYER.COM FIGHTACS.COM

    It is important to hear from real parents. Please play this clip and always FIGHTACS.COM.

 The vast majority of parents are simply shocked when they see what ACS workers try and accuse them of. The ACS worker pays a two-sided game. When she first contacts the parents she advises them that this is a routine investigation and that they should comply to make things easier and that there is no reason to hire an attorney because the case " is not in court". Meanwhile, at every step, the ACS worker and her supervisor is preparing the case for court and to present to a judge and accuse the parents of neglect or abuse. The most shocking moment for a parent is when they arrive at court and are presented with a copy of the charges that have been filed with the court. Blatant lies will suddenly appear in what is called the petition and this is what is presented to a judge as the truth. It is this two-sided game tat allows ACS workers to operate. The biggest lies they tell is to claim that the parents made certain statements that prove they are abusing their children. And ...

Judith Likeen, another ACS failure. ACS has failed us again. This time a foster parent who abused children and was paid over 1 million dollars by the city of New York. The tragedy is that the vast wealth that is now NYC, our political class still cares very little of what happens to children in foster care. ACS must be reformed from the top to bottom. I have called for the termination of all top level management. This must happen now to keep our kids safe.

If you are reported for child abuse and the caller accuses you of drug use, ACS workers will come into your home and demand that you take the drug tests. Once a test is taken by the parent at an ACS FACILITY, the parent will not be given a copy of the results. The ACS worker will tell the parent that they have failed and demand that the parent enter a drug rehab program. We must also understand that many of these programs that ACS sends parents to are ineffective and are only used to increase the ACS budged by showing that ACS has " helped" families at risk. If and ACS worker asks you to take a drug test, consult an attorney immediately.
