Florida Child Welfare Case Manager Certification Practice Exam

What happens if a child is not reunified?

1. Adoption or another permanent goal is approved

2. Immediate return to the parents

3. The case is dismissed

4. None of the above

The correct answer is: Adoption or another permanent goal is approved

If a child is not reunified, it means that the goal of the child welfare system is to find a permanent home for the child. This can be achieved through adoption or another permanent goal such as guardianship or kinship placement. Option B is not a feasible solution as the child was removed from their parents due to safety concerns. Option C is also not accurate as the case would still be open and active. Option D is incorrect because as mentioned above, the goal is to find a permanent home for the child, so there is always a plan in place.
