Miranda applies to caseworkers. Not only in the traditionally recited phrasing, but in the requirement to inform citizens of all rights, or loose all fruit of the poisonous vine.
Were you informed of your right to team meetings and a support person of your choice?

No Terry I did not know this information.
I was NOT informed of my right to a team meeting and when I fought for them I was told that they were a privilege not a right and that they were contradictory to the service plan which after 73 days I fought for and got. I had not even had my trial or been adjudicated with ANY finding and my service plan stated Concurrent: Adoption Contingent: Kinship.
Our Rights and Responsibilities and the Rights and Responsibilities of the State and their employees must be given to families so that they can understand their rights and moreover, the rights of their children.

Yes, Utah and other states are pretty bad about the who rights issue, if they were privileges, then it would "Bill of Privileges" instead of bill of rights.
Angela was not informed of hers either, at the time she didn't know she had any rights, she had no support and no body on her side to help her, she was ran over by the state like many other's who don't know. Too bad I didn't know her back when all her stuff with DCFS was going on.
