FAMILY CARE SAFETY REGISTRY REGISTRATION FOR RESOURCE PROVIDERS

FAMILY CARE SAFETY REGISTRY REGISTRATION FOR RESOURCE PROVIDERS

  • To: REGIONAL EXECUTIVE STAFF, CIRCUIT MANAGERS, AND CHILDREN’S DIVISION STAFF
  • From: CANDACE A. SHIVELY, DIRECTOR

DISCUSSION:

The Family Care Safety Registry, FCSR, now offers an on-line registration process for our resource providers. The no cost option is available to all agencies involved in resource home development for the purpose of licensure and approval by the Children’s Division. The FCSR still offers the option for an individual to register by paper; however, the on-line registration provides more timely results.

Instructions for the on-line process are located on the Children’s Division Intranet under Resource Development. The resource licensing worker should provide the instructions for on-line registration to the resource provider and may assist with registration process if needed. Registration must be completed per instructions on the Intranet to qualify for the no-cost option. Instructions on the FCSR website are for public use and have an associated cost.

NECESSARY ACTION

  1. Review this memorandum with all Children’s Division staff.
