Topic > Jy Shamblee Case Study - 1724

Jade is not of school age and does not receive any daycare or babysitting services. Jade does not receive any direct services from the agency. The focus of permanency planning for the Jades is adoption. Ms. Shamblee was considered a valuable asset prior to Jade's replacement. The next permanency hearing is scheduled for September 22, 2015. AGENCY FOSTER STATEMENT: Agency Supervisor Thereah Ivey said she was made aware that Ms. Shamblee had an active case with the Office of Special Investigations (OSI ) on May 21, 2015. Ms. Ivey advised that the OSI report's concerns were that Ms. Shamblee's home was observed to be in deplorable conditions; the bathroom was habitable, the house was unkempt, Jade slept in a common area (the living room of the house), there was extreme clutter, peeling paint, and an abundance of electrical cords hanging from different locations. Ivey added that another agency concern involved Ms. Shamblee's March 29, 2015, arrest for fifth-degree criminal possession of marijuana. Ms. Ivey said the agency is not aware if there is a criminal case pending against her.
