As long as the court system has custody of your child(ren), you must cooperate and complete your case plan in order to get custody returned. You may complete your case plan and get PHYSICAL custody of your child returned, but Department of Social Services may retain legal custody of your child for another 3-6 months or more, in order to encourage a parent's ability to maintain a safe lifestyle for the child(ren).
