Shipwreck – Polinsky Children’s Center and Child Protective Services (County of San Diego)
Polinsky Children’s Center and Child Protective Services are receiving a SHIPWRECK for sending a family of 9 children to the streets. Being between the ages of 2 and 17, these are the same children that these government organizations exist to help. Polinsky is deferring to CPS, while CPS has not filed a claim for two weeks while these children are seeking safe shelter and are being left to fend for themselves. This is a failure we feel needs to be publicized and rectified. San Diego must do better.
