What does cps do with dismissed cases?

When a case is dismissed, the Child Protective Services (CPS) typically closes its investigation or case file related to that incident. They may keep a record of the dismissal for future reference, but it generally means that no further action will be taken in that specific case. CPS may also analyze dismissed cases to identify patterns or trends that could inform future practices or interventions. Additionally, dismissed cases do not imply that the concerns raised were unfounded, but rather that there wasn't sufficient evidence to take further action.
