JV-07-168] ARKANSAS DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES and MINOR HONORABLE CINDY THYER, JUDGE CHILDREN APPELLEES AFFIRMED LARRY D. VAUGHT, Chief Judge This is an appeal from an order terminating appellant Aracely Moreno’s rights to four of her sons. The record shows that the removal was based on neglect that was largely attributable to Moreno’s drug use and inability to provide for her children’s basic needs. The record also shows that although appropriate services were offered, Moreno failed to avail herself of them and to complete her case plan. After consideration of all relevant and required factors, the trial court ultimately found that termination was in the boys’ best interest. The trial court set out its reasoning and conclusion in a detailed opinion. Because we are satisfied with the decision of the trial court and the accompanying quantum of evidence and findings supporting the order, we affirm by memorandum opinion.
