The State was also just penalized $6.2M in federal funds after failing a second
audit of its Title IV-E claiming for federal foster care matching funds, due to
placing foster children in unlicensed homes or facilities, and failing to
document the children’s legal status. Clearly, reform is a long-term
proposition, and Children’s Rights will be actively monitoring the progress
of the court-ordered reforms.
