Private fostering and adoption agencies. In GOP states they deliberately underfund DCS and divert funds to privately run agencies (many of which are faith based) to cover the gap. It serves a double purpose, because it’s a grift that funnels public aid money into private hands, plus faith based organizations can refuse services to whoever they feel like. In this case, it’s partially a cash grab and partially wanting to appease folks who are beholden to some kind of weird, assimilationist fantasy about saving the defenseless natives.
