In the Matter of ALIM LISHEN LAQUAN R., Also Known as ALIM W. SCO FAMILY OF SERVICES, Respondent; FRANCES DENISE R., Appellant.

Ordered that the order of disposition is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

Contrary to the mother's contention, the evidence presented at the fact-finding hearing established, by clear and convincing evidence, that she permanently neglected her child by continuing to abuse marijuana for four years following his removal from her custody and by failing to plan for his future ( see Social Services Law § 384-b; Matter of Sarah Jean R., 290 AD2d 511, 512). Notwithstanding the diligent efforts of the Department of Social Services to help reunite the family, the mother refused to cooperate with rehabilitation programs, repeatedly declined to submit to drug testing, and tested positive for marijuana on numerous occasions. By her actions, the mother failed to plan for her child's return ( see Matter of Laura F., 48 AD3d 812).
