If a FAD worker and supervisor decide to close an adoptive home, the worker must discuss the reasons for closure with the adoptive parents. The worker must provide the adoptive family with the reasons for closure, both orally and in writing, and inform the family they have the option to request an administrative review. Reasons an adoptive home may be closed include, but are not limited to:

  •   an incident of abuse or neglect occurs in the home that warrants a child's removal;

  •   the adoptive family is not willing to adopt a child from the population of children for which adoptive families are needed;

  •   the FAD worker and supervisor determine the adoptive home is not currently appropriate to meet the needs of a child in DFPS conservatorship.

The FAD worker may remove any child in DFPS conservatorship from the home before the administrative review.
