Single Friend has a Foster Child and hoping to adopt in California....If she is called to Deploy will this affect her status as a Foster/Adoptive Parent? She is worried she would lose custody of child despite having a Family Care Plan utilizing relatives. Child will become available for adoption later this year.
Thanks in advance, everyone around this baby is worried....
Get someone in her family care plan licensed for foster care IMMEDIATELY.If she is deployed, the child can ONLY go to a licensed provider. If a family member or friend is licensed and has an established bond, they can claim the placement while she is gone. Make sure that all parties are made aware in the case that upon return from deployment, it is the foster mother's intention to adopt, so they do not look for other families.
