Summary
A new report reveals a shocking crisis in child care: one in six child protection cases fails because there’s no safe place to place kids—especially those with behavioral needs. Judges are sounding the alarm as the system collapses under pressure, leaving vulnerable children stranded in unregulated “Special Emergency Arrangements” where they’re at risk of crime or exploitation. With no available spots for those who qualify for specialized care, the system isn’t just failing—it’s actively endangering some of society’s most fragile youth.
