The Applicant filed a complaint with the Child and Family Services Review Board alleging that the Society portrayed him in its records as a child abuser and a risk to his children without giving him an opportunity to be heard.
The Society did not attend the hearing.
The Board found that the Applicant had not been given the opportunity to be heard regarding the allegations as required under section 2(2)(a) of the Child and Family Services Act.
The Board ordered the Society to conduct an Internal Complaint Review Panel meeting to provide the Applicant with an opportunity to be heard.
