Lorain county children services Reviews

If i could give Zero stars i would. This is the worst place i have ever seen ib my life. Mary Knoblock is as crooked as they come! They adopted my sister's kids out for NO legit reason!

Michelle Hunt and Ryann Daniels are the worst workers I have ever met. They took my kids from me with saying I was a bad mom and I didn't take care of them, but in the papers it said how good and how close my kids and I are. I always made sure my kids where clothed and fed. I always made sure my kids had what they needed and what they wanted. I made sure that they had a roof over their heads and running water and heat. I always did all this myself and never ever had a problem. Then when my youngest son ended getting into an accident they looked at me like I was the worst mother ever. Then they took my kids and told me I wasn't allowed to be alone with my kids when I would never ever hurt my kids. When my son got hurt I rushed him to the hospital right away and I told them the truth on what Happened. Now all 5 of my kids are in different areas and it makes it so hard to see them when I don't have a vehicle. All I get is ssi and I can't afford a vehicle or really any gas with that kind of income. What is also messed up is every time I tell Ryann Daniels something she doesn't believe me. She put my oldest in the hands of a big time drug user and an abuser. Now he is suffering from PTSD cause of the trama he went threw. I don't do drugs and I don't get in trouble with the law. I try fighting to get my kids back but it's like I do everything they ask me to do it's never good enough. I have been fighting this a year and I'm getting no where cause they tell the judge I'm doing nothing and the lawyer they gave me isn't doing anything to help either. I knew I should have moved back to Cuyahoga county when they first showed up but I didn't think they would have taken my kids cause I know I didn't do anything wrong. This place is the most horrible place ever and they really don't care about family and breaking up a perfectly fine family who is happy and who doesn't really do anything wrong. They are just looking to make a quick buck on breaking family up. They break a family up and it goes on for awhile and that's how they make their money. To whoever reads this get out of Lorain county as fast as you can if you have any kids. Even the smallest thing will get them called on you.

As a guardian ad litem I interact with them s lot and they are very dedicated people.

yea I bet they do take care of these so called foster parents to bad they don't look into the background that good had my kids with a drunk and the brother was a drug dealer how do you get to become a foster parent doing all that?? But parents out here getting the kids taken for the same damn reason I don't know but if you can stay far far away from these evil people

Staff is extremely helpful, husband and I have had a wonderful experience since 2015

They get in your business a little to much. I understand they are looking out for the child but sometimes they are in peoples lives for nothing and sould be helping somewhere else

My kids were legit kidnapped by the employees of this agency and taken out of county. When the employee asked the police to assist her, he said no and walked across the street to stand by for my protection. All this in my opinion was due to a personality conflict and no more. After a long drawn out time I won!! They reintroduced my violent ex into their life, sent them to schools where they were hazed. And said that they could do nothing about school placement, even tho my special needs boy had bruising from chairs thrown and other children's saliva in his hair.. repeatedly saying in many situations that they could not do anything to protect my children. In my opinion the staff is undereducated, and they do not respect the culture and values of family. They were a very negative part of my and my children's life. We felt violated, scared, abused, and taken advantage of...I have asked to speak with people at the top and have been denied
