In re Amber P.
On October 30, 2006, the Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services (the Department) received a referral alleging that minors parents were homeless and were sending the child to school hungry, dirty, and with rotting teeth. On
November 2, 2006, the social worker interviewed the parents, who said they had not been homeless for long. Although there was no food, refrigerator, or stove in the motel room in which the family was residing, the parents insisted that minor was well fed. They also claimed that minor received regular dental care at a clinic in Whittier, but they did know the date of her last dental examination.
