Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Permanency planning focuses on the timely placement of children in stable, long-term homes to prevent frequent moves and disruptions in their lives. This includes efforts to prevent out-of-home placements if possible and if not, to quickly find appropriate foster or adoptive placements. The Adoption and Safe Families Act (A) is a federal law that supports the timely placement of children in permanent homes, but it is not the specific process of permanency planning. Child welfare (C) encompasses a variety of services related to the well-being and safety of children, including permanency planning, but is not a specific term for this process. The Indian Child Welfare Act (D) is a federal law that provides guidelines for child welfare cases involving Native American children, but is not directly related to the topic of permanency planning.
