Why this petition matters

Started by Lucinda Kerrigan

My finance and I were falsely accused on neglecting our two children right after birth. Our children were sick after birth and we're were put in the hospital nursery. On the third day, a DCFS investigator showed up in my room as long probing questions about our medical history and the father's criminal history. She labeled us right away as "unfit" parents and we lost custody.

Instead, of them helping us get adequate housing being we were homeless our children six years later are still with their Foster families and maybe adopted. We did all the counseling and parenting classes but we moved to a different city at one point and our case was not transferred so we were not given the chance to finish the classes but did the counseling.

We are now living at a hotel and within a year we will have enough money saved to get an apartment or home. I work two part time jobs and my finance works full-time to keep a roof over our head. Can you help us and other families affected by this conspiracy and sign today? Thanks so much!
