What does the Interstate Compact on the Placement of Children (ICPC) establish?

  1. Procedures for child welfare investigations

  2. Procedures for all states when placing children across state lines

  3. Criteria for foster care placement assessments

  4. Regulations regarding child adoption

The correct answer is: Procedures for all states when placing children across state lines

The Interstate Compact on the Placement of Children (ICPC) establishes procedures that all participating states must follow when placing children across state lines. This compact aims to ensure that the welfare of children is the primary consideration during such placements and that they are made in accordance with legal and regulatory frameworks established by each state involved. By creating a standardized procedure for interstate placements, the ICPC facilitates better coordination among states, promotes accountability, and helps provide necessary oversight. It addresses concerns about the safety, appropriateness, and continuity of care for children being placed outside their home state, thereby working toward the best interests of the child. While other options touch on important aspects of child welfare and protection, they do not encompass the specific function and purpose of the ICPC, which primarily focuses on managing interstate child placement processes.
