You can request information that you feel is necessary to meet the child’s needs. This includes information about the removal and or history of abuse and neglect, as well as the child’s educational, medical, dental, social, emotional, or behavioral history. You can contact the caseworker at any time to request more information or clarification. You can also request a copy of the child’s case record if you take legal custody (permanent managing conservatorship or adoption). Visit DFPS’s website for more information about requesting case records: www.dfps.state.tx.us/policies/Case_Records [sic, broken link]. If you have questions about records, email Records.Management@DFPS.state.tx.us or call (512) 929-6764 or toll-free (877) 764-7230.
