Rule Impact:

Reason for Rule:
?
This field provides a brief summary of the justification for the rule change (Limited to 2000 characters).
Actions to implement the Pinnacle Plan goals led OKDHS to develop a continuum of foster care that seeks to reduce the number of placement moves a child may require because the current placement is unable to meet the child's behavioral, mental, and developmental needs. By providing additional services to a child's current placement without requiring a move, a child may experience less trauma, improved placement stability, and timelier permanency through reunification, adoption, or guardianship. Furthermore, the Family First Prevention Services Act (FFPSA) emphasizes placing children in family-based settings by limiting federal funding for placements that aren't family-based. This amendment revises policy to address practice changes that address the Pinnacle Plan goals and FFPSA criteria.
