Syllabus

The trial court did not err in awarding permanent custody of Appellants' three minor children to the Children Services' agency. The court's decision that the children could not be placed with either parent within a reasonable time or should not be placed with either parent was supported by competent, credible evidence. In addition, the court's decision that a permanent custody award to the agency was in the children's best interest was supported by competent, credible evidence. Finally, the court properly concluded that the agency made reasonable efforts to prevent the continued removal of the children and to reunify the family. Affirmed.
