The Court / Legal Section

When you enter foster care, you automatically have to deal with the courts. The decisions regarding your foster care plan is governed by agreements made by attorneys, caseworkers, mediation and through decisions handed down by a judge.

Keeping track of court and legal matters can be a difficult job, even for an experienced adult. Asking for explanations and keeping copies of documents is key in gaining a grasp on what's going on. Here are some documents you might want to file to get started:

  • Citizen Review Board Docs
  • Court Documents
  • Contracts & Agreements
  • CASA Correspondence
  • Special Court Notices
