Description
Describes specific activities associated with Adoption and Guardianship Support and Preservation Services. Having a clear description and guidelines about the delivery of the program is necessary to help ensure the quality of postadoption and guardianship service delivery is equitable and consistent across the state. This manual includes a theory of change, describes the philosophical principles and values that undergird the program, defines assessments and treatment planning steps, and recognizes the racial and cultural differences of clients and their adoptive parents/guardians when providing services.
