Do I have to admit or retain all children?

(1) You have the right to decline to admit or keep a child in your home. However, individual CPA programs may have contracts that specify a child cannot be denied admission.
(2) You do not have the authority to move a child to another home (either temporarily or permanently) without the consent of the child's DSHS worker or the child placing agency case manager. This does not include temporary visits under seventy-two hours. You must also comply with travel requirements in WAC 388-148-1435.
