Section 395-4-002 - ACCEPTING A RELINQUISHMENT OF PARENTAL RIGHTS

Current through March 20, 2024

Prior to signing a relinquishment of parental rights to the Department, a parent may be offered counseling for the purpose of providing education on the available options and to ensure the parent is making an informed decision. A parent may decline to participate in this counseling.

After a parent has completed or declined counseling, the Department will determine whether accepting the relinquishment is in the best interest of the child. The Department may elect not to accept a relinquishment of parental rights.
