"Red Tape"




Dealing with RED TAPE is terribly annoying for everyone, but for a certain family it came close to causing 2 young children to go into foster care. After having been severely, unimaginably abused by their custodial parent, the children’s non-custodial parent was awarded custody. The RED TAPE in the child support system is so inefficient that the new custodial parent was still paying to the old one for months. The children’s needs were difficult to meet without the funds in hand that should have been if only the system had been working properly. Thanks to you, our donors, the VF stepped in and provided support for the kids so they could stay with their loving, protective parent and continue to receive medical and psychological therapy.
