Imagine This . . .

It's 11:30 at night and a 5-year-old girl tries to comfort her crying 2-year-old brother as the DCS (Department of Child Services) caseworker removes them from their abusive home to an individual or group foster home filled with strangers.

Sounds like something that could never happen here in the White Mountains—right? Unfortunately, this situation, and others equally traumatic, occur several times a month in Navajo County as dozens of abused, neglected, or abandoned kids enter the County Juvenile Court System. Is there any hope for these kids?
