(2) Individual CPA programs may have contracts that specify a child cannot be denied admission.
(3) You do not have the authority to move a child to another home, either temporarily or permanently, without the consent of the child's DCYF caseworker or the CPA case manager. This does not include temporary visits under 72 hours. You must also comply with travel requirements in WAC
