Investigation of the Iowa Department of Human Services’ Oversight of a Child Care Center, September 11 , 2013

Over a three-month period in 2010, our office received three complaints alleging the Department of Human Services (DHS) was lax in its oversight of a licensed child care center. It was alleged that the DHS did not sanction the child care center in any meaningful way after finding several violations associated with children engaging in sexual behavior with each other at the center. This involved the Child Development Center (CDC) in Des Moines, which is owned and operated by Children and Families of Iowa (CFI).
