Completion of Placement

Overview

Once the child has completed placement, they either return home or emancipate. Under SB163, Probation is involved in a collaboration with Employment and Health Services, and Mental Health to provide treatment that is community based in an effort to expedite reunification and move them out of placement and into the community sooner.

Should the court order probation to continue the supervision of the minor upon completion of placement, the child's case would be transferred to the appropriate supervision unit of the department.
