"Torrington DCF continues to be a concern to the families in this town, as children are being “seized” from good, loving homes. Many families within this town have fought tirelessly, including but not limted to Jamaal Jacob for the return of their children, many have still not been returned. As more reach out for help, wanting to share their story about what is occurring, why are the families in this town such a target? Why does DCF not follow their own rules/guidelines, and ignore the law by not providing parents with their rights, the Mini Miranda.
It was Stephanie Criestman, another desperate parent looking for answers and an outlet, answers we could not give,a louder voice for her children we could. Stephanie is a proud mother of two young children ages 8 and 9, who were seized from her. The first “asset” was the 9-year-old, on January, 31st 2014. Mission, remove child from home, leaving mother to believe that Torrington DCF had no interest in seizing “asset” number 2, her 8 year old brother. Mother shared ” she is a beautiful, amazing little girl, I love and adore her, she has classic autism, she lights up the room with her smile”."

Hello I am a mother of a healthy and happy 9 month old boy named Phoenix who was recently taken in Torrington by DCF. I'm trying to get as much help and information as possible. The link did not work for me :( What has happened since?
ReplyDeleteI have not been updated regarding this case. I don't know what your case is about; however, if you have any disability they cannot disregard your rights under the ADA based upon a recent DOJ statement of position published in August 2015. They must accommodate parents with disabilities and also they are prohibited from discriminating based upon disabilities.
