 Many states, including Mississippi, failed to track how often children in foster care facilities are abused. That's according to a report from the Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General. It looked at how states monitor whether children in residential facilities are being mistreated. The report found that Mississippi was unable to identify multiple incidents of maltreatment across chains of facilities, does not monitor if residential facilities operate in other states, and does not share information about chains of facilities with other states, all resulting in a lack of oversight.
