The Central Registry laws were replaced in part, as to foster families, by House Bill 1024, which came into effect mostly on Jan 1, 2004. Statutes are:
26-6-106.5 State SS shall make rules to notify all counties of foster home 19-1-103(27) violations. No further placements till investigation is concluded.
26.6.104 Licensing and on-site visits and criminal records and finger prints.

Are any of you familiar with the administrative appellate process within the foster care licensing system? Specifically, when an institutional investigation results in a finding of “founded” neglect or abuse, minor or otherwise, whether or not the license is revoked or a child is moved from the home, what remedy does the foster parent have to challenge any finding? I know that the Central Registry no longer exists and any such findings will be entered into TRAILS but then what??????????
