New Placement Template for Child in Care

Use this template each time a child comes in care. One Template per child. Upon placement, copy the “New Placement” section into an email and fill it out. At the end of each month, reply to all on the original email sent, and provide an update using the “Monthly Update” template. This keeps all parties on the same page and keeps a running document for reference.
