– a case for Child ServicesBy Crystal ConwayWe’re cruising down Regent Street in a tinted minibus and Concheeta says, “Eyes open!” Everybody looks out of a window. As we get to Camp Street, somebody says, “Let’s check Igloo.” So we turn into Camp Street and head to Middle Street.Apparently food outlets and bus parks are prime spots for street children to congregate and so this team of three Probation Officers with police support coming from two officers of the Juvenile Branch is determined to check as many of them as possible. Probation officers leading two of the children they picked up on the streets into the Child Protection Agency on Friday night.Senior probation officers Pamela Heywood and Concheeta Gray, Junior Probation Officer, Leon France and Corporals Shawndell Williams and Brian Towler of the Juvenile Branch made up the team that went out on Friday night to look for children on the streets.When I caught up with them they had already come back from their first trip to the Stabroek area where they had picked up three children.I was invited to head out with them on their second run for the night. After passing the Camp and Middle Street junction, the team decided to pass by Bourda, however as Cpl Williams remarked, “You see so many of these children when you’re not working, but when you are it’s so hard to find them.” She has been on these raids for the better part of three years now.The team decides to head to Sherriff street with a pass through Kitty. But as traffic comes to a halt at the junction of Thomas Lands and Vlissengen Road we spot something we’ve been looking for all the time. Standing at the lights, begging drivers is a little boy. Four team members get out of the bus and on opposite sides of the road, corner the little boy before he can run.The bus then pulls into the corner and the officers put the little boy into the bus. By this time the entire line of traffic is staring out the window, probably wondering if they’ve just witnessed an abduction.Probation Officer Heywood gives a quick rundown of how the process works. She says that the children are questioned about their presence on the road at that hour, where they live, where are their parents, their phone number, names of relatives, etc. If they cannot give account for themselves they are taken to the office and they are processed.They run through the drill with the little boy we had just picked up. He says that his name is Akeem (not his real name) and that he lives at Kaneville. He tells the officers that he is eleven years old and that his mother knows where he is; he is the eldest child and he attends Grove Primary School where he just wrote his Common Entrance and he’s waiting for his results.The officers ask him why he’s begging, and by this time he’s crying a little, but he tells them that he uses the money to buy things to eat and gives money to his mother to buy food. He says that she knows where the money he gives her comes from.Eventually he stops crying and by the time the bus passes through Kitty and gets to Sherriff Street via David Street, he is quiet.As the bus cruises down Sherriff Street we pass Survival Supermarket and we spot two little children arguing at the corner before Buddy’s Pool Hall. The team decides to pull into the corner and just let them pass the bus on the inside of the road. As they pass the door, a Probation Officer holds on to a little girl but before the other Officer can grab hold of the little boy who was with her, he runs away.The team gets out and begins to search for the boy while the little girl is put into the bus. This one doesn’t cry though. Instead she puts up quite a fuss and answers all of the questions directed at her belligerently while stating over and over that she needs to go home.The usual questions are asked but all she can say is that she lives in North Sophia with her grandmother. She doesn’t know her mother’s name,Cheap NFL Jerseys, she doesn’t know her father’s name,Bill Lee Jersey, she says that she was with her “19 year old brother” who was on the seawalls and who told her to wait for him at “Demico” with her little brother.She doesn’t know her big brother’s name either. She cannot remember her home phone number or her grandmother’s name,Jerseys NFL China, only saying that she calls her “granny”. Asked her age she insists that she’s 10 and that she attends Lodge Secondary School.As she’s spinning her story the little boy who was picked up earlier suddenly pipes up and says “She’s lying!” Eventually the search for her little brother is abandoned and the team finishes its run of Sherriff Street, heading all the way to the Texaco gas station on Mandela Avenue on the lookout for more children.The team decides to take these two into the office so that they can be processed before they head out for another run. My journey with the team ends here.At the office Stacey Fraser,cheap nfl jerseys sale, Deputy Director of Operations of the Agency filled me in on the next step for these children.The children are bathed, clothed and fed as necessary. Then the officers manning the command post attempt to reach their parents and guardians. Those who can come in are asked to do so and give some explanation for why their child was allowed to be out at that hour of the night.In every case a probation officer accompanies the child home with its parents to ascertain the address for their records and to start a file on the case.But it doesn’t end there. Every single case where a child is allowed to return home will continue with an inspection to make sure the child is back in school and with follow up visits to ensure that child is being cared for.For those children who cannot be sent home,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, they are taken under state protection and sent to one of the state run homes until a decision can be made as to where they will be placed in the future.Mrs. Ann Greene, Director of the Child Protection Agency said that on Friday night the team made a total of four trips and picked up 14 children.One boy said that he had been sleeping on the streets since December. Of the 14 children, six remained in the custody of the Child Protection Agency as of yesterday.Critical, though, the media may be of government agencies, this is one agency whose officers can stand proud.The Child Care and Protection Agency launched in 2009 took the reins of an older programme called Mission Child Protection. The aim of Mission Child Protection is simple – get children off the streets.She notes that the Agency is stepping up its operations and will be looking to make these raids much more often. Her intention is simple … the Agency will not stop until all the children are off the streets.She advises parents who are facing difficulties to come in to the Ministry of Human Services or to the Agency. She said that there are dozens of programmes under which assistance can be had. Exposing children to the dangers of the streets is not the answer; there is help to be had.Neighbours and other persons who see instances of children begging or being forced to sleep on the streets or any other situation that amounts to mistreatment or neglect should call the agency’s 24 hour hotline 227-0979 to report such instances.Mrs. Green points out that even if the Agency cannot pick up the child right away they can use the information as soon as they mobilize the resources. She advises patrons of restaurants and popular hang-out spots to keep an eye out for these occurrences and make an effort to report them, after all,China Jerseys Wholesale, what can one phone call hurt?
