What is the primary permanency option if reunification with the family is not appropriate?

  1. Extended foster care

  2. Group home

  3. Adoption

  4. Independent living

The correct answer is: Adoption

The primary permanency option if reunification with the family is not appropriate is adoption. This means that the child will be placed in a permanent home with a new family, with the legal rights and responsibilities of a parent and child relationship. Extended foster care and group homes are temporary solutions that may only last until the child reaches a certain age or until a permanent placement is found. Independent living refers to a state in which a child is legally considered an adult and is no longer under the care and supervision of a foster family or the child welfare system. Therefore, adoption is the most suitable option for long-term stability and security for the child.
