What is the purpose of Permanency staffing?

To prepare for court and decide on permanency
To finalize the adoption process
To evaluate the child's educational needs
To assess the family's reunification progress

The correct answer is: To prepare for court and decide on permanency

Permanency staffing meetings serve as a forum for caseworkers, supervisors, attorneys, and other parties involved in a child's case to discuss and determine the best plan for achieving a permanent and stable living situation for the child. This can involve reviewing the progress of a family towards reunification or deciding whether adoption or another permanent arrangement is in the child's best interest. Option B is incorrect because permanency staffing is not solely focused on adoption, but rather the overall goal of achieving permanency. Option C is incorrect because while the child's educational needs may be discussed during a staffing, it is not the primary purpose. Option D is incorrect because permanency staffing is not solely focused on assessing family reunification progress, but rather making decisions in the best interests of the child.
