• noting that the reasonableness of DHS’s efforts depends on the par- ticular circumstances of the case
• reversing change in perma- nency plan when “it was determined early in the case * * * that mother required hands-on, in-person parent training” and DHS did not provide that type of training for most of the life of the case
• reversing change in perma- nency plan when “it was determined early in the case * * * that mother required hands-on, in-person parent training” and DHS did not provide that type of training for most of the life of the case
• con- cluding that DHS had not made reasonable efforts where a delay in services to mother did not afford her an opportunity to become a fit parent
• DHS’s efforts were not reasonable where it was undisputed that the mother required hands-on training to become minimally adequate parent, but, as of the permanency hearing, training had not been going on long enough to allow for the meaningful assessment of the mother’s progress
• where DHS delayed providing the recommended type of training, so that mother had only five sessions by the time of the permanency hearing, mother was not given a reasonable opportunity to demonstrate that, with those services, she could become a minimally adequate parent
