Iowa Department of Human Services (DHS) and Juvenile Court Services will be conducting Community Conversations regarding insight into the reform and restructure of the group care process in Iowa. For the conversations to be worthwhile, they are inviting individuals who have had direct experiences with group care. Such individuals would already have an understanding of group care process (what it is and what it does) and/or specific suggestions to improve the process. You may be interested in the Community Conversation if you had a child in group care or direct experiences with children who have been in group care and would like to share feedback about reforming the system.
