Prioritize well-being of Oregon foster youth through reform

To: Gov. Kotek, Sen. Woods, Rep. Neron

From: A verified voter in Sherwood, OR

March 25

The head of the Oregon Department of Human Services, Fariborz Pakseresh, needs to resign due to systemic failures in providing adequate care and protection to children in the state's foster care system. Reforms must be enacted to prevent further mistreatment of vulnerable youth and prioritize their well-being through community-based, trauma-informed services rather than harmful practices like restraints or out-of-state placements without transparency.
