Depending on the circumstances for the DCFS having temporary custody or some control over the child's welfare, the DCFS can ask a court for such custody and the restriction or removal of parental rights. Such actions are part of its responsibility where a child's care and support are adversely affected those having parental rights and responsibilities.
