It’s been six months since we started holding Pennsylvania’s foster care system accountable.
Today, Governor Tom Wolf signed an executive order establishing the Office of Advocacy and Reform. Wolf describes it as “an overhaul of the state services and systems” designed to protect the Commonwealth’s most vulnerable, including those in foster care.
“Children like Grace Packer were abused viciously by those charged with their care. We know too many signs were missed before her murder,” Wolf said during his remarks.
Packer’s story launched our Project PA: Children in Crisis series earlier this year.
I’ll explain what this means on Local 21 CBS News, WHP Harrisburg beginning at 5.
