CPS selects Another Planned Permanent Living Arrangement as a youth or young adult’s permanency-planning goal when CPS has:
• removed the youth or young adult from his or her home to protect him or her from abuse or neglect;
• ruled out all other preferred permanency goals;
• identified or is seeking a family or other caring adult to make a permanent commitment to support the youth or young adult, but that adult does not want to assume legal custody of the youth, and CPS either:
• prepares the youth or young adult to live independently when he or she ages out and leaves care as an adult; or
• makes arrangements for the youth or young adult to live with assistance in a community setting that can care for his or her special needs in adulthood.
