Impossible to reach a social worker by phone .I refuse to be put on hold more than 1 hour. After driving 20 miles , had to wait 45min for the worker to return from lunch and an additional 2 hours to be seen to get an error on their part resolved. Only 1 working social worker ! Being disabled, it was a painfully horrible day.

They seldom do their job to protect people...most are crooked and love to write lies, after lies, after lies about you. If you have 3 dishes in your sink when dhs comes by...they will write your house was extremely messy. They are into LEGAL CHILD TRAFFICKING. THATS WHATS ITS CALLED, THATS WHATS HAPPENING,INFORM YOURSELVES. THEY ARE TAKING KIDS OUT OF PERFECT HOMES FOR MONETARY GAIN.
