620.052 Provision of information to parent or legal guardian concerning community service programs for families in crisis when child protection investigation does not result in out-of-home placement of a child. During a child protection investigation that does not result in an out-of-home placement due to abuse of a child, the Cabinet for Health and Family Services is authorized and encouraged to provide information to the parent or legal guardian about community service programs that provide support services for families in crisis, including organizations that operate programs authorized under KRS 403.352 and 403.353. The Cabinet for Health and Family Services is authorized to exercise its discretion in recommending programs, organizations, and resources to the parent or legal guardian. Effective: July 15, 2016 History: Created 2016 Ky. Acts ch. 107, sec. 3, effective July 15, 2016. Legislative Research Commission Note (7/15/2016). 2016 Ky. Acts ch. 107, sec. 3 directed that a new section of KRS Chapter 403 be created for the text of this statute. The subject matter of KRS Chapter 403 relates to divorce and dissolution of marriage. Since this statute addresses an option for the Cabinet for Health and Family Services to follow at the conclusion of a child protection investigation that does not result in removing a child from the parent or legal guardian's home, in codification the Reviser of Statutes created a new section of KRS Chapter 620, which addresses child abuse and neglect investigations, as a more appropriate statutory designation under the authority of KRS 7.136(1)(a).
