Creating an Individual Child Care Agreement
An Individual Child Care Agreement must be completed by the case worker any time a child enters a new substitute care setting to communicate the child's needs to the new caregiver. Automating this form within Ohio's child welfare information system has improved efficiency for the worker by completing the form with information already recorded in the application, such as medical, education, behavioral, legal as well as additional critical information. Automation of the ICCA has been accomplished by combining it with the Placement left navigation link to create the Placement / ICCA link that allows the caseworker to complete and review information according to guidelines and timeframes defined by policy. A view of the ICCA is also available in Provider.
Each ICCA is signed by all parties and a copy is provided to all parties Prior to a child’s placement in a substitute care setting (initial or subsequent); Within 7 days of emergency placement; and Within 7 days of any change in the child’s information.
