One worker talks about children actually being closer two states apart than when they were living in the same county. He doesn t want to go. Of course kids fear moving. A new place is exciting if it is talked up. The home study doesn t include information I need.
Every agency does home studies differently.
What is important to one worker may not be to another. Until a uniform home study comes along, the best way to learn is to ask. Call the worker from the other agency and begin a conversation. Develop a rapport with the agency, and find out how the other worker will support the family and the placement. Traveling to visit the prospective family is expensive.
