Description of Subjects/Issues Federal guidance was recently issued that encouraged Child Welfare agencies to update their policies to reduce or eliminate referrals to the Child Support program. The Division of Child Welfare and the Division of Child Support Services have a state/county work group who will be recommending policy changes to comply with this recent regulation.
Purpose/Objective of Rule The Child Welfare Policy Manual now encourages policies that do not require referrals to child support except in very rare instances. The Division of Child Welfare and the Division of Child Support Services have a state/county work group who will be recommending policy changes to comply with this recent guidance. Consistent with the federal guidance, this rule change will no longer require Child Welfare to refer families to Child Support Services.

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.
