What this edition changed DCF's summary on the PDF

In paragraph 3-2e, changed the phrase “supportive services case” to read “protective supervision case.” The sentence “Once a court order has authorized protective supervision, the protective intervention case will immediately be closed, and a protective supervision case will be opened” was struck.
