Child Protective Services (CPS)

• Description:

  Child Protective Services focuses on protecting children from suffering future abuse, maltreatment and neglect. The purpose of CPS is to encourage more complete reporting of child abuse and maltreatment. Child Protective Services is required to receive and investigate child abuse and maltreatment reports, to protect children from further abuse and maltreatment, and to provide rehabilitative services for the children, parents, and other family members involved. CPS focuses on the child in the context of the family, and recognizes the value of the family to the child. Removing a child from the home is the last resort, and used only when less drastic means of protection are impossible. New York State is geared toward helping families by providing services to prevent family break-up or to reunite a child whom has already left a home.
