Embedded Files
A placement is one type of location that can begin a removal episode. A placement occurs when a child is removed from his/her home and placed with a resource like a foster family or other residential resource for more than 24 hours. An initial placement also triggers the creation of a IV-E eligibility file in Casebook.
This page describes how to create placements. In Casebook, you can create a placement for a child from either a Case or Assessment page. You can learn about viewing placement history on the Editing Placements.
