Summary
This audit studies the following questions: Have social workers been unduly influenced to include information in applications for petition that is contrary to what their investigations showed? Are social workers who handle child-in-need-of-care cases qualified, and do they receive sufficient training to work effectively with attorneys and the courts? Does SRS have sufficient numbers of social workers to handle child-in-need-of-care caseloads?
