Description of Subjects/Issues |
Colorado’s most vulnerable population is that of children under the age of 6 months old who are removed from their home of origin. In 2018 the Administration for Children and Families, HHS recommended that Model Family Foster home licensing standards be set in each state. These standards included recommendations for immunizations requirements for those caring for foster children and youth and standards for others who also reside in the home. CDHS created a foster parent stakeholder committee to look at the needs of foster parents as well as how Colorado will incorporate these new recommendations for Colorado Child Welfare practice. A separate rule packet will be done that updates all of the Volume 7 requirements for county and child placement agencies in licensing foster homes. Due to rules around immunization requirements being very concerning and needed individual conversations with stakeholders these rules were specifically taken out to be a separate rule packet. |

Comments |
CDHS holds two public hearings, an initial and final, for each proposed rule packet. The initial hearing allows the public an opportunity to submit written data, views, or arguments and to testify for or against the proposed rules. The Board does not vote on the proposed rule at the initial hearing, but asks CDHS to consider all public comment and discussion and, if needed, submit revisions to the proposed rule. The final hearing, usually the month following the initial hearing, allows the same opportunity for public comment, after which the Board votes on final adoption of the proposed rule.
