The father brought a motion to change the temporary placement of his infant child from the Society to his care.
The mother opposed the motion and brought a cross-motion seeking placement with her.
The court found that the mother, who has developmental challenges, did not demonstrate a material change in circumstances since the previous order.
However, the father demonstrated a material change by consistently attending access, addressing substance abuse concerns, and maintaining a positive relationship with the foster mother.
The court granted the father's motion and placed the child in his care subject to the Society's supervision.
