Potentially Disqualifying Arrests


(1)

Behavior that results in an arrest or a history of arrests may raise concerns about the fitness of a subject individual to be a relative caregiver, a foster parent, an adoptive resource, or an other person in the household. If a subject individual has a history of one or more arrests for any of the following offenses, the Department determines if, considering the behavior that resulted in the arrest, the subject individual is fit to be a relative caregiver, foster parent, adoptive resource, or other person in the household:

(a)

Child abuse or neglect.

Domestic violence.

(c)

A crime against a child, including pornography.

(d)

A crime involving violence, including rape, sexual abuse, manslaughter, or homicide.

(e)

Physical assault.

(f)

Battery.

(g)

A drug or alcohol related offense.

(h)

A weapons-related offense.

(2)

If a subject individual has been arrested for any of the offenses listed in section (1) of this rule, the Department must make a fitness determination and approve or deny the subject individual.

(3)

Approval of any subject individual arrested for a crime identified in section (1) of this rule may not occur unless the fitness determination leading to approval is made by one of the following authorized designees:

(a)

An Administrator designated by the Department’s Child Welfare Director.

(b)

A District Manager.

(c)

If permitted by the District Manager in the District in which the criminal records check was initiated, a Child Welfare Program Manager or a Child Welfare Supervisor.

(4)

Denial of any subject individual arrested for a crime identified in section (1) of this rule may not occur unless the fitness determination leading to denial is made by an authorized designee who is a Child Welfare Supervisor, a Child Welfare Program Manager, a District Manager, or an Administrator designated by the Department’s Child Welfare Director.
