ORDERED that the orders are affirmed insofar as appealed from, without costs or disbursements.
The evidence adduced at the fact-finding hearing supports the finding of permanent neglect of each child. The agency established by clear and convincing evidence that it made diligent attempts to strengthen the parent-child relationship, and that, despite its encouragement, the mother failed to maintain continuous contact with her children, who are now 15 and 8 years old, on a regular basis and failed to plan for their future (see, Social Services Law § 384-b; Matter of [Emmanuel] B., 267 A.D.2d 114). Further, during the relevant time period, the mother failed to avail herself of the drug treatment necessary to enable her to regain custody of her children (see, Matter of [Jordan] D., 271 A.D.2d 350).
In addition, the evidence adduced at the dispositional hearing demonstrated that the children's best interests would be served by terminating the mother's parental rights and freeing them for adoption by their foster parents, with whom they had bonded and expressed their desire to remain (see, Matter of [Sheila] G., 61 N.Y.2d 368; Matter of [Tiwana] M., 267 A.D.2d 144; Matter of [Brandon] W., 262 A.D.2d 644; Matter of [Maldrina] R, 219 A.D.2d 723; Matter of [Desire Star] H., supra).
The mother's remaining contention is without merit.
