Commissioners approve oversight of Child Abuse and Neglect MOU to reduce duplicate interviews
Summary
Fulton County commissioners approved Resolution 2026-011 to provide oversight of an MOU intended to limit duplicate interviews of children in abuse and neglect cases and promote single interviews when feasible.
The Board adopted Resolution 2026-011 to approve oversight of Memorandum of Understanding 2026-001 relating to child abuse and neglect (CAN) on behalf of Job and Family Services. The MOU’s stated goals include eliminating unnecessary duplicate interviews of children who are subjects of CAN reports and, where feasible, conducting only a single interview.
The resolution was moved and approved by recorded roll call; the meeting record does not specify additional operational details of the MOU in this session. The board’s action provides formal oversight authority but does not, in the minutes, specify new funding or implementation steps.
