Families seek WV DHHR action to reunite grandchildren
Letter to the paper denounces West Virginia DHHR for denying placement of grandchildren by a married couple. It alleges the decision relied on inaccurate hearsay from Tennessee child services, requests the secretary to prioritize child welfare over paperwork, and asks for an Interstate Compact move to allow home environment reunification while papers are processed. The writers describe splitting residence and facing legal costs. They invoke national unity after the Sept 11 attacks.
