Child Welfare Agency Director to Resign
From Times Staff and Wire Reports
Department of Children and Family Services Director David Sanders, who has worked for three years to reform the long-troubled child welfare agency, is leaving to take a job with a nonprofit organization.
Sanders oversaw a steady reduction in the number of foster children in the county as he pushed to reunify families and modernize how the department decided the fate of abused and neglected children.
He will take a job next month as an executive vice president at Seattle-based Casey Family Programs.
