257A.10 Local social service agency evaluation.

When a local social service agency assumes responsibility for a child pursuant to a voluntary placement agreement or by order of the court, and the parent requests that placement be with a designated caregiver, the local social service agency must evaluate the appropriateness of the child's placement with the designated caregiver. If placement with the designated caregiver is deemed to be in the child's best interest, the designated caregiver must comply with licensure requirements under chapter 245A, in order to provide foster care for the child.
