Petition: To: Senator Barbara Favola, Chair of the Rehabilitation and Social Services Committee  From: Concerned Citizens of Virginia and Supporters of the "Jane Doe Files" The Issue Systemic failure in Child Protective Services (CPS) and the Foster Care system is not just a policy error—it is a human rights crisis.
