May 7, 2021
TO: All Family, Children, and Adult Services Manual Holders
FROM: Matt Damschroder, Interim Director
SUBJECT: Five Year Rule Review and Amendments to Ohio Administrative Code Rule 5101:2-42-87

This letter transmits the five-year review of Ohio Administrative Code (OAC) 5101:2-42-87 that addresses requirements for a Public Children Services Agency (PCSA) or a Public Child Placing Agency (PCPA) related to the termination of substitute care and custody of a child.  This rule will become effective June 1, 2021.

OAC 5101:2-42-87 entitled Termination of Substitute Care and Custody of a Child provides requirements for the PCSA to assess the need for continued custody and placement of a child. Revisions were made to align with the requirements located in rule 5101:2-37-04 of the Ohio Administrative Code, and to remove form revision dates within the rule.
