In a recent government meeting, discussions centered around a safety plan concerning the use of marijuana and alcohol by a mother, Robin K., who is under investigation for substance use while caring for her children. The safety plan included stipulations such as not using substances in the presence of children, ensuring a sober caretaker is present, and securing substances in a locked location.

During the meeting, it was revealed that Robin had tested positive for THC and alcohol in two separate drug screenings conducted between August and September of this year. The first test showed positive results for her prescribed Suboxone and THC, while the second indicated the presence of THC and alcohol. Despite these findings, Robin claimed that her positive alcohol test was due to something she had eaten, denying any intentional consumption of alcohol.

The investigator noted that Robin had agreed to undergo drug screenings but declined a third test. Additionally, there were concerns raised about her attendance at well-child visits for her youngest child, with reports indicating she appeared under the influence during one appointment. Attempts to communicate with both Robin and the children's father, Tyler K., were described as minimal, with Tyler reportedly assuming Robin was managing their interactions with the authorities.

The meeting highlighted the ongoing challenges faced by protective services in ensuring the safety of the children involved, as both parents have been largely uncooperative in establishing a comprehensive safety plan regarding alcohol use. The investigator emphasized the need for continued monitoring and communication with the family to address these concerns effectively.
