For DFPS to be named as the child’s permanent managing conservator (PMC) following the termination of parental rights, DFPS must prove the need for termination, as described in the items under 5563 Involuntary Termination of Parental Rights.

Proof of termination rebuts the presumption that appointing a child’s parents as managing conservator is in the child’s best interest.
