ACS reforms

The commissioner of New York's Administration for Children's Services, or ACS, said he is beefing up accountability so that abused children don't fall through the cracks. Last year, Jaden Jordan, 3, of Brooklyn, and Zymere Perkins, 6, of Harlem, were beaten to death. Investigations determined that ACS social workers dropped the ball in these cases and failed to do their jobs to keep the children safe.
