Definition for Reunification Programs: Almost half a million children are in foster care or other out-of-home placements in the United States. For 50% of these children, the case goal is reunification (i.e., returning them to their biological parents) as quickly and safely as possible.
In the context of child welfare, family reunification refers to the services that are provided for purposes of returning children who have been placed in out-of-home care to their families of origin.
Family Reunification services may be ordered by the Court for the parents to regain physical custody of their child. The family reunification services are meant to alleviate the circumstances that led to the removal of their child.
Family reunification laws try to balance the right of a family to live together with the country's right to control immigration. How they balance and which members of the family can be reunited differ largely by country.
Definitions. If the child is under six (6) years of age, that the parent has exposed the child in any highway, street, field, outhouse, or elsewhere with the intent to wholly abandon the child. "Child" means a person under eighteen (18) years of age.

If your services are terminated that means that the goal for your case has changed from getting you back together with your child to finding a permanent home (that is not with you) for your child.
