Under current law, the Department of Children and Families administrative
code requires an agency that is placing a child in out-of-home care to provide certain
information to the out-of-home care provider. Under current administrative code,
an agency is required to provide, among other things, information pertaining to
medical needs, upcoming appointments, and educational programming. This bill
creates a statutory provision that mirrors the current DCF administrative code on
what information must be provided to an out-of-home care provider, and specifies
that the information must include eligibility for services and an individualized
education program, if applicable.
