Rule 700.1035 Do the Same Standards Apply to Relatives of A Child Who Apply to Become A Foster Parent As Any Other Person Who Applies to Become A Foster Parent?

Title IV-E of the federal Social Security Act requires that a state's child-care licensing agency apply the same standards to relatives who choose to become a foster parent as it applies to non-relatives, with the exception that the child-care licensing agency may, on a case-by-case basis, waive a non-safety related standard with respect to a relative child in care.
