Sexual abuse is very common for foster children in the Pennsylvania group home organizations.

This is called the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Children and Youth Service. “The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania uses the name Office of Children, Youth and Families. However, depending on which of the 67 counties you live in your county department may have a different name. Some of the counties use names such as: Children and Youth Services (CYS), Children, Youth and Family (CYF), Department of Children, Youth and Family (DCYF)and Department of Children Youth and Family Services (DYFS).”
