(1) The purpose of this rule is to define guardianship services and placements. Guardianship services and placements provide a permanent, safe living arrangement for a child in the court-ordered custody of Child and Family Services or Department of Human Services when it is not appropriate for the child to return home, adoption has been ruled out as a permanency goal, and continuing agency custody is not in the child's best interest.
(2) Guardianship services are authorized by Section 62A-4a-105.
(3) This rule is authorized by Section 62A-4a-102.
