If the removal was sudden it would be handled by the Office of
Children and Family Services.
http://www.ocfs.state.ny.us/main/fostercare/

NYC  Administration for Children's Services
150 William Street 18th Floor,
New York, NY 10038
Phone: 1-877-KIDSNYC (543-7692)
Outside NYC: 212-341-0900
(They haven't moved - except the floor they are on - in the 25 years I
have been aware of them.)


There were at that time thousands of fosters care homes for children.
All foster care homes in NYC were at that time involved with a local
adoption agency as the city of New York did not themselves have any. A
child and their description would be placed on a database and any
registered foster care home agency could decide they would be willing
to take responsibility for the child and receive  compensation from
the city of NY.  Children who were not "bid for" would become boarder
children at Metropolitan Hospital.
