Best and oldest FFA in the county. The have great support, training and social workers. They really care about their resource parents.
During the months of Jan-September 2012, I was entitled by the court to visit my infant son as arranged by my assigned social worker in coordination with the Children's Bureau "Adoption Advocate" Laura Siegelman, from 11:30am-1:30pm every Monday and Friday. After 6 months of being denied any visitations, I got a court-order mandating that I receive visitations twice weekly. After a couple more weeks of being lied to, I finally got to see my son after 5 months, in a windowless 10*10 foot room, and began a twice weekly routine of driving to Los Angeles 2 hours early to more often than not be informed by a last minute phone call from Laura to tell my wife and I that she would not be calling the foster parents, ensuring that they did not bring my son. When they did arrive with our son, they were often invited to narrate a slide-show through our visitation time displaying a slide-show of their living room over our heads. When our infant would be calm enough to close his eyes and smile and rest, Laura Siegelman would slam a book or a ruler against a desk to make him start crying. After our court hearing of August 28th, her interference was revealed to be more malicious than negligent, as she had reported in a sworn affadavit that our visitations were cancelled each week when she observed us to be high on drugs. Many of the times she cancelled our visits, she refused to come out from behind the armored door, sending instead her supervisor with advanced-age and severe senility to break the news that we had driven 100 miles for nothing. She also reported to the court that the foster parents had "driven all the way out to LA" due to my alleged deceptions. She had no ethical qualms about lying to the court and told us such to our face. After transferring our case to Orange County to be free of her interference, I was horrified to discover her continued lingering at our visitation locations taking photos of us, and writing letters, and soliciting defamation, until our OC worker discovered something about her past history with Orange County.
