In the Matter of VINCENT M. COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SERVICES et al., Respondents; KATHRYN N., Appellant.

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

Contrary to the mother's contention, the petitioner agency met its burden of establishing by clear and convincing evidence that, despite its diligent efforts to encourage and strengthen the parental relationship, the mother permanently neglected her child by failing to make plans for his future ( see, Social Services Law § 384-b [a]; Matter of Stephen Anthony M., 237 A.D.2d 363; Matter of Natanya Sharay G., 232 A.D.2d 487; Matter of Maldrina R., 219 A.D.2d 723). The mother's failure to complete a drug rehabilitation program. evidenced her failure to plan for her child's discharge to her custody.

The mother's remaining contentions are without merit.

Altman, J. P., Krausman, Florio and McGinity, JJ., concur.
