    First, the case worker should have coordinated preliminary treatment plans for the initial stages of Gabriel’s placements. Here, the worker should have referred foster parents to speak with specialists or attend educational/informational classes on caring for children with unique social, cultural, and behavioral barriers.

However, the lack of details in the programs led to unforeseen consequences. In Zavez’s article on ASFA, he includes several cases where these new features created ‘a case-plan goal that was impossible for [the mother] to meet’ (2008, p.191). While a shorter time frame for the termination of parental rights was implemented, ASFA lacked proper guidelines and funds to support parents who wanted to be reunified with their child.…
