These rules establish the requirements and process for certification of a Core Services Agency (CSA) as a Child Choice Provider (CCP) in the District of Columbia.
Each CCP must demonstrate an understanding of and experience in family-centered practice, which includes ensuring communication when appropriate with natural parents or legal guardians as well as foster parents and kinship caregivers. Family-centered practice will be demonstrated through family engagement and involvement in all levels of the treatment-planning process, as well as family voice and choice in the treatment and services their children receive. Service delivery is family-driven.
