That is really determined by your disposition in that case.
If you are the child, you have likely been removed from the home. If you are old enough to be posting this question, then you will have discussed what is going to happen with your caseworker. If this has not happened speak to your current guardian and request it.
If you were the custodial parent being charged, if you have not yet been arrested, you will likely be. If you are still free, contact an attorney as soon as possible. Get representation. If you must rely on a court appointed attorney, become an expert, you will need to direct your attorney. Public defense is often very inadequate.
If you are an uncharged parent, but the child has been removed anyway, do everything directed by the caseworker so that you can reunite with your child.
If you are the uncharged parent and the child has not been removed, still do as directed by the caseworker. Do not do what you want to do unless cleared with an attorney first.
This is your family and you need to do everything necessary to protect it. It will be difficult but not impossible.
