PURPOSE AND EFFECT: In 2013, the Florida Legislature passed Senate Bill 1036 authorizing young adults in foster care, who have not reached permanency before 18 years of age, to remain in care until 21 years of age, or age 22 years of age in the case of a young adult with a disability. This legislation substantially amended the following sections of the Florida Statutes: 39.013, 39.6013, 39.701, 409.145, 409.1451, 409.175, and 409.903 and created sections 39.6035 and 39.6251, Florida Statutes. New rule language is required to reflect the extensive changes in the law.

SUMMARY: The Department of Children and Families intends to implement Senate Bill 1036 in Rule 65C-41, F.A.C., Extension of Foster Care. The new rule will provide definitions of relevant terms; establish an application process; and provide an appeal procedure for young adults determined to no longer be eligible for, or denied readmission into, extended foster care.

SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION: The Agency has determined that this will not have an adverse impact on small business or likely increase directly or indirectly regulatory costs in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate within one year after the implementation of the rule. A SERC has not been prepared by the Agency.

The Agency has determined that the proposed rule is not expected to require legislative ratification based on the statement of estimated regulatory costs or if no SERC is required, the information expressly relied upon and described herein: The Department used a checklist to conduct an economic analysis and determine if there is an adverse impact or regulatory costs associated with this rule that exceeds the criteria in Section 120.541(2)(a), F.S. Based upon this analysis, the Department has determined that the proposed rule is not expected to require legislative ratification.

Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.

65C-41.002 Application Procedures for Readmission to Extended Foster Care.

A young adult may apply for readmission to extended foster care at any time before his or her 21st birthday. Prior discharge from the program is not a barrier to readmission. A young adult shall be readmitted provided the young adult meets the eligibility requirements of s. 39.6251, F.S.

(1) Applications for readmission must be readily available to young adults. The application form to be used is “Application for Readmission into Extended Foster Care,” CF-FSP 5377, August 2014, incorporated by reference, and available at www.dcf.state.fl.us/dcfforms/Search/DCFFormSearch.aspx. A community-based care lead agency may add its logo to form CF-FSP 5377.

(2) To reenter extended foster care, the young adult must complete the Application for Readmission into Extended Foster Care and provide proof of participating in a qualifying activity. Designated staff shall offer to assist the young adult with completing the application and/or obtaining necessary documentation.

(3) If the young adult does not meet eligibility requirements, designated staff shall offer to assist the young adult in choosing and enrolling in a qualifying activity.

(4) All young adults with diagnosed disabilities or mental health needs shall be provided an equal opportunity to participate in extended foster care. A young adult with diagnosed disabilities or mental health needs may need additional support; therefore, the designated staff will work in consultation with all of the young adult’s service providers, guardian ad litem, and attorney, if applicable.

(5) The young adult must be notified within 10 business days of submitting the application whether the application was approved or denied, or whether additional information, including supporting documentation, is needed.

(a) The decision to approve or deny shall be based solely on whether the young adult meets the requirements of s. 39.6251, F.S.

(b) If the decision is to readmit the young adult into extended foster care, within three (3) business days, the case manager shall request the Children’s Legal Services attorney or legal representative of the Department to petition the court for reinstatement of jurisdiction.

(c) If the decision is to deny the application for extended foster care, the community-based care agency shall provide a “Notice of Denial for Readmission into Extended Foster Care,” CF-FSP 5410, May 2015, incorporated by reference and available at www.dcf.state.fl.us/dcfforms/Search/DCFFormSearch.aspx , and an “Application for Aftercare Services,” CF-FSP 5391, May 2015, incorporated by reference and available at www.dcf.state.fl.us/dcfforms/Search/DCFFormSearch.aspx. A community-based care lead agency may add its logo to forms CF-FSP 5391 and CF-FSP 5410.

(d) If additional information is needed, the young adult shall have 10 business days from notification to submit the information. Designated staff shall offer to assist the young adult in obtaining the additional information. If the young adult fails to provide the additional information, the young adult will be denied readmission into extended foster care.

(7) If a young adult is unable to participate full-time in a program or activities listed in s. 39.6251(2)(a)-(d), F.S., due to a physical, intellectual, emotional, or psychiatric condition that limits participation, the young adult’s case manager shall:

(a) Assist the young adult in securing supporting documentation of the condition; and

Military, housing provided by the Agency for Persons with Disabilities, housing for victims of human trafficking, or housing included as a component of service by any other service provider.

(d) A young adult who may require continued, intensive therapeutic or medical care will be assessed to determine his or her needs and the most appropriate living arrangement, and services will be sought by the case manager in consultation with the young adult and the young adult’s team of service providers, guardian ad litem, and attorney, if applicable.

(e) A young adult may share housing with other persons provided the requested living arrangement meets the assessed levels of supervision and services for every household member who is in the extended foster care program. The community-based care lead agency must approve all roommates based on its assessment of the young adult’s needs and safety concerns. The community-based care lead agency is not responsible for any portion of the expenses of any roommate who is not receiving extended foster care services.

(g) The young adult and foster parent, primary caregiver or group home provider shall discuss and agree upon the length of any permitted absence of the young adult from his or her approved living arrangement. The young adult and the foster parent, primary caregiver or group home provider shall determine jointly the protocol for notification of such absences.

(h) In the event the extended foster care living arrangement is obtained before the young adult reaches age 18, the case manager shall make scheduled visits with the young adult to the new approved living arrangement as a part of the transition.

2. The transition plan shall include an agreement by the young adult to engage in one or more of the qualifying activities required by s. 39.6251(2), F.S., and to live in an approved living arrangement as detailed in the transition plan.

6. Portability. The services provided under this rule are portable across county lines and between lead agencies.

a. The service needs that are identified in the original or updated transition plan shall be provided by the lead agency where the young adult is currently residing but shall be funded by the lead agency that initiated the transition plan.

For all young adults in foster care who are in a living arrangement out-of-state or visiting out-of-state, the lead agency with primary case management responsibilities shall provide maintenance payments; case planning, including a written description of all services that will assist the young adult in preparing for the transition from care to independence; as well as regular case reviews that conform with all federal scheduling and content requirements.

(b) Case Plan. The young adult must have a case plan while in extended foster care.

3. The case plan shall be reviewed with the young adult prior to each judicial review hearing, and shall be updated as necessary.

(3) Provision of Services. The community-based care lead agency must ensure that the young adult is provided necessary services. Necessary services include:

(a) Those services that are identified in the young adult’s case plan.

(b) Supervision of the young adult at a level that is consistent with the young adult’s individual educational, developmental and health care needs, permanency plan and independent living goals as assessed with input from the young adult.

(d) Face-to-face contact with the young adult at least monthly, but more often as necessary and as agreed to by both the case manager and the young adult. If the young adult lives outside the service area of his or her community-based care lead agency, monthly contact may occur by telephone.

(a) The case manager for a young adult who has a documented disability shall discuss with the young adult and any designated decision-making authority for the young adult, within 180 days of the young adult’s 20th birthday, whether the young adult wishes to remain in extended foster care after his or her 21st birthday. This discussion shall occur during the transition planning for possible discharge based on reaching the maximum age for participation.

(b) If the young adult who has a documented disability requests discharge from, or otherwise opts out of continuing in extended foster care beyond the 21st birthday, the case manager shall provide the form “My Decision to Leave Extended Foster Care,” CF-FSP 5375, incorporated in paragraph (1)(c) of this rule, and specify that the young adult has requested discharge from the program on the 21st birthday.

65C-41.005 Discharge from Program.

(1) A young adult shall be discharged from the extended foster care program when the young adult is no longer eligible to participate in the program. In the event the designated staff determines that the young adult is ineligible, the designated staff shall offer to assist the young adult in resuming eligibility requirements and provide to the young adult a “Notice of Discharge from Extended Foster Care,” CF-FSP 5376, May 2014, which is hereby incorporated by reference and available at www.dcf.state.fl.us/dcfforms/Search/DCFFormSearch.aspx. A community-based care lead agency may add its logo to form CF-FSP 5376.

(a) A young adult shall be discharged from extended foster care when categorical eligibility ends on the earliest of the dates that the young adult:

1. Reaches 21 years of age or, in the case of a young adult with a disability, reaches 22 years of age;

2. Knowingly and voluntarily withdraws his or her consent to participate in extended foster care. Withdrawal of consent to participate in extended foster care shall be verified by the court pursuant to s. 39.701, F.S.

3. Achieves Permanence. Permanence due to a voluntary return by the young adult to his or her legal parent after the age of 18 disqualifies the young adult from participating in extended foster care during the time the young adult is living with that parent. However, in the event that living arrangement fails, the young adult will no longer be considered to have achieved permanence, and the young adult is again eligible for extended foster care.

(b) Except as provided for in subparagraph (1)(c) of this rule, a young adult shall be discharged from the extended foster care program for failure to participate in one or more qualifying activities set forth in s. 39.6251(2), F.S., unless that failure is based on a documented disability.

(c) A young adult shall be discharged from the extended foster care program for failure to reside in the approved living arrangement. The length of the young adult’s absence from the approved living arrangement that supports the determination that the young adult is not residing in the approved living arrangement shall be determined during transition planning and documented in the transition plan.

(2) A young adult may elect voluntary discharge from the extended foster care program. When a young adult indicates to a case manager or designated staff that he or she wishes to leave the program, the case manager or designated staff shall provide the young adult with the form “My Decision to Leave Extended Foster Care” CF-FSP 5375, January 2015, which is incorporated by reference in rule 65C-41.004, F.A.C., and ask the young adult to complete the form and return it to the case manager. The case manager shall inform the young adult of other available services in Postsecondary Education Services and Support and Aftercare Services. When a young adult elects voluntary discharge from extended foster care, or when the young adult is discharged, the case manager shall request that the Children’s Legal Services attorney file a motion to terminate jurisdiction and schedule a court hearing on that motion.

(3) Before the case manager may discharge a young adult from extended foster care, other than when the young adult voluntarily leaves the program, the case manager must provide the young adult with a written notice that describes all reasons for the discharge and the form “Due Process Rights,” CF/PI 175-74, August 2014, which is incorporated by reference and available at www.dcf.state.fl.us/dcfforms/Search/DCFFormSearch.aspx.
