I think that I've only ever heard Child Protective Services mentioned in a scary context. Like: "CPS is going to come take your kids!" So when my expert today reached out to me, I couldn't wait to get the real scoop.
Welcome to the Just Dumb Enough Podcast. A show that acknowledges no one is always an expert, by dispelling misconceptions with real experts.
My guest today is Lance Hillsinger. Lance retired after 34 years in Child Welfare. He's here to breakdown what child welfare does, what they don't do, and ways the system can improve. There are certainly some very surprising bits tucked away in this brief interview, like this: (audio only teaser)

Let's foster better homes.
Being a foster home must be a mix of stressful and rewarding. I'd love to have someone on who has some time into it, if anyone listening wants to come on the show.
In other news, April rankings have shuffled a bit since last week:
1. The United States, now led by New York, California, and Illinois. 2. England of the UK. 3. Australia, with Victoria just barely staying above the South. 4. Canada, with Ontario taking over. 5. Ireland. Coming back strong for another month.
That's it for this week! Have a great week, a great weekend, and I'll see you all back here next week for another new episode! Until the next episode, pretty please do all the things to help the show: rate, review, like, and subscribe.
