Family Advocates
Early stage of ideation but so desperately needed by moms, dads, and children who have the misfortune of having their lives being turned upside down by CPS. COR needs your help to bring this program to life.
A Family Advocate's purpose is to ensure the rights, liberties, and due process protections are upheld and enforced. Intended to be an advocate for the child or family who is the subject of CPS case, investigation, or removal. Family Advocates are not intended to be legal aid or represent people in court. Family Advocates will ensure CPS treats everyone, regardless of race, economics, or gender, with honesty, dignity, and respect by holding case managers and others to a higher standard of transparency and communication. Family Advocates would also help families navigate the system and connect them with resources they are entitled to.
It's critically essential that all families who are the subject of a CPS case, investigation, or removal have a Family Advocate they can rely on to do right by themselves and their families.
