In re L.W. CA6
S.W. (mother) appeals from the juvenile court’s order under Welfare and Institutions Code section 388 to terminate previously ordered reunification services with her daughter, L.W. (minor), on the ground that mother was suffering from a mental disability that rendered her incapable of utilizing those services (§ 361.5, subd. (b)(2)). Mother contends that termination of her reunification services violated federal law prohibiting discrimination in child welfare proceedings against a parent with a mental disability and was not supported by substantial evidence. Mother also contends that the juvenile court erred in finding that termination of her reunification services was in minor’s best interests and that the Santa Cruz County Department of Family and Children’s Services (Department) provided mother with reasonable services during the reunification period.
