Overall, I didn't get a good impression. The basic problem that I found in most districts was a high turnover rate among social workers due to low pay. The voice on the other end of the line would change frequently, and I always had a sense of apprehension calling in cases. Responses weren't consistent; the same level of possible abuse that might result in "We'll make a note of it" one day could end up with the police at the door of the parent's house the next...
