708.22-5. Service plans and Conditions. In a proceeding in which a child has been found to be in
need of protection or services, the Court may order the child’s parent, guardian and legal custodian
to comply with any conditions and/or service plan determined by the Court to be necessary for the
child’s welfare.
(a) The service plan or conditions ordered by the Court shall contain the following
information:
(1) The identification of the problems or conditions that resulted in the abuse or
neglect of a child;
(2) The treatment goals and objectives for each condition or requirement
established in the plan. If the child has been removed from the home, the service
plan must include, but is not limited to, the conditions or requirements that must be
established for the safe return of the child to the family;
(3) The specific treatment objectives that clearly identify the separate roles and
responsibilities of all parties addressed in the service plan, including the
Department’s specific responsibilities to make reasonable efforts to assist the
parent, guardian or legal custodian in their efforts toward reunification with the
child; and
(4) A notice that completion of a service plan does not guarantee the return of a
child and that completion of a service plan without a change in behavior that caused
removal in the first instance may result in the child remaining outside the home.
(b) A service plan may include recommendations and the dispositional order may require
the child’s parent, guardian and legal custodian to participate in:
(1) Outpatient mental health treatment;
(2) Substance abuse treatment;
(3) Anger management;
(4) Individual or family counseling; (5) Parent training and education;
(6) Cultural wellness treatment and training; and/or
(7) Any other treatment as deemed appropriate by the Court.
