What this law says, in plain English
This statute requires permanency planning for children in foster care who have committed delinquent acts. Courts may decline to terminate parental rights if the child needs continued out-of-home placement, the parent cooperates with services, the child resists services, or the delinquency sentence length affects the plan.
