7.24 If Reunification Fails

If reunification fails and the child comes back into care, the case must be re-assessed to determine if it falls into the "permanency risk" or expedited termination category. Where possible, to minimize trauma to the child and maintain continuity, the child should be referred to their prior foster care/relative home for placement.
