《防止和治疗虐待儿童法》要求对据称虐待和疏忽照顾的父母进行报告、调查和起诉。这种家庭警务系统通常被称为儿童保护服务(CPS)，它利用政府最大的警察权力，基于被框定为忽视的贫困条件，扰乱、监视、控制和摧毁数十万个黑人家庭。
围绕着一位黑人母亲对纽约市家庭治安系统长达五年的磨难，我们审视了CPS的根深蒂固及其对黑人家庭的破坏性影响。我们呼吁废除CPS家庭治安系统；将投入寄养行业的数十亿美元用于投资于与所谓的“儿童保护”脱钩的生活质量资源；以及为CPS对黑人家庭的几代暴力行为提供金钱赔偿。
The Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act mandates reporting, investigation,and prosecution of allegedly abusive and neglectful parents. Commonly known as child protective services (CPS), this family policing system uses the government’s police power to disrupt, surveil, control, and destroy hundreds of thousands of Black families based on conditions of poverty framed as neglect.
Centering a Black mother’s five-year long ordeal with New York City’s family policing system, we examine the carceral roots of CPS and its destructive impacts on Black families. We call for abolishing the CPS family policing system; diversion of the billions invested in the foster industry to investment in quality-of-life resources de-linked from so-called “child protection”; and monetary reparations for generations of CPS violence against Black families.
