In the face of rising caseloads that endanger the abused and at-risk children they are charged with protecting, hundreds of child protection workers from Department of Social Services offices across the state, including a highly spirited group of 40 in Arlington (see video), rallied at lunchtime on June 24 to call for funding for additional social workers.
