Is your client seeking placement of the child with a parent or relative in another state? Has DCF proposed moving the child to another state over your client’s objection? Come learn about the intricacies of the Interstate Compact on the Placement of Children and how it impacts placement of children outside Massachusetts. We will review the ICPC’s purpose, the procedures for seeking a home study in another state, expedited placements, and what to do if the receiving state rejects the proposed custodian. We will also discuss the Appeals Court’s recent decision in Adoption of Knox, which addresses application of the ICPC to parents.2 CAFL CLEs
