In 2025, the New Mexico legislature mandated the creation of a public dashboard by the Children, Youth, and Families Department, which includes data such as the number of foster children who have run away. As of late June, this number stands at 56 missing children in state custody. The article questions how these incidents occurred and highlights the failures of the government agency responsible for their safety.

Story summary
In 2025, the New Mexico legislature enacted a law mandating that the state’s Children, Youth, and Families Department publish certain key statistics online. One of these figures was the number of children who had run away while under the department's custody. As of late June 2025, this number stands at 56 missing children in foster care. This alarming statistic raises serious questions about the state’s ability to ensure the safety and well-being of vulnerable youth. The law aims to increase transparency but highlights significant systemic issues within child welfare services.
