When would you hold a reunification staffing?

  1. After the child turns 18

  2. Before starting counselling

  3. Prior to allowing overnight visitation

  4. Immediately after the child is taken into care

The correct answer is: Prior to allowing overnight visitation

A reunification staffing should occur prior to allowing overnight visitation with the child. This is because the purpose of a reunification staffing is to assess the readiness of the parent and child for reunification and to create a plan to support a successful reunification. Holding the staffing after the child turns 18 or before starting counseling may not address specific issues and concerns related to the reunification process. Similarly, holding the staffing immediately after the child is taken into care may not allow for the necessary time and planning to ensure a successful reunification. Therefore, the most appropriate time for a reunification staffing is prior to allowing overnight visitation.
