When I was a CASA volunteer I heard a lot about the "concurrent" plans. It's a state requirement that CPS work towards the reunification right up to the day rights are terminated. BUT, they also, from the moment the child/children have been taken away are working on kinship placements and secondary placements for the child should reunification not work out.
It's always frustrating when you have to spend all that time on someone when you can see they are obviously not trying to work the service plans and such, but at least they have a secondary plan.
I'd second jiggy's suggestion to talk to an attorney, but I'd make it the attorney ad litem already on the case, and the guardian ad litem. As a former CASA I can tell you that foster parents gave me more information than anyone about the children I worked with.
