Expedited Permanency Planning/Home

The Home Base/Expedited Permanency Planning Unit is intensive, in-home treatment focused on serving families where the primary issue is children under six being in out-of- home placement or at risk for placement.

HB1178 was passed in 1994 with the expectation that children under six years of age who had to be removed from their homes due to abuse or neglect issues could be in a permanent home within 12 months if certain key factors were addressed.
