A monitoring inspection was initiated on November 8, 2021 and concluded on November 17, 2021. The Executive Director was contacted by telephone to initiate the inspection. The Executive Director reported there were 24 approved foster homes and 28 children in foster care. The inspector emailed the Executive Director a list of items required to complete the inspection. The inspector reviewed three personnel records, three foster home records, and two children’s records submitted by the agency to ensure documentation was complete. Exit meeting was held with the Executive Director on November 17, 2021. Information gathered during the inspection determined non-compliance with applicable standards or law, and a violation was documented on the violation notice issued to the agency.
