Story Behind the Curve
Stressors like substance use, untreated mental health issues, poverty, and economic strain can lead to increased abuse and neglect investigations. Drivers of decreased CPS cases include economic support, food security, and early intervention services which help families increase resilience and lead to a decline in CPS cases. While there is not a specific reason for the decline in CPS cases in 2025, Onslow County DSS continues supporting families throughout CPS investigations by providing support and linkages to care.
