<human>: Sorry if this isn't the right place. I am a mandated reporter and have hot-lined a child a few times. Most of the time I get a case worker who I don't feel is doing their job .... well. 

Recent example : child is incredibly dirty, beyond anything normal and reasonable and wore SAME clothes for FOUR DAYS(middle school aged where peers are ruthless)  

The issue was Hot-lined and CPS called the parents to let them know they were coming **THE NEXT DAY**! CPS came, child was clean and had clean clothes. 

(previous issues included: living in a storage unit, no winter clothing, no running water, black and blue feet from small shoes)

Obviously if you tell them when and why you are coming, then the problem wouldn't still be there. 

CPS is finding the claims "unfounded", there have been a few claims, I am not new to working with children. I know what abuse looks like. 

When I can get a person who really looks into things, the family moves back and forth across county lines so their case is shifted back and forth enough to avoid any real progress to be made on it. They are claiming status under the "Homeless Assistance Act" to stay at the school district they want. 

IS there any way to fix this? Can I call or report anything to an organization higher than CPS that can look at cases crossing county lines? My biggest issue is that, except the days CPS tells the parents they are coming, the abuse is still very much there and not getting better. 

If it makes a difference child is middle school girl with special needs.

Provide a brief overview of the text.
<bot>: Girl is abused, CPS is claiming there is nothing wrong when there is a lot wrong. Family shifting counties to avoid claims against them. I need help pushing the issue.
