1996 SESSION
967903184Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:
1. That § 66-14 of the Code of Virginia is amended and reenacted as follows:
§ 66-14. Allowance for maintenance of children placed by Commonwealth in private homes, etc.
For the maintenance of each child committed to the custody of the
Department pursuant to § 16.1-278.8(14) and placed in a private
home or in a facility other than one operated by the Commonwealth, there shall
be paid by the locality where the child resides, as determined by the
court, a per diem allowance which shall be established by the Department
from funds appropriated to the Department for this purpose. This
allowance shall be drawn from funds allocated to the locality's community
policy and management team through the state pool of funds. The cost of
such care shall not exceed that amount which would be incurred if the services
required by the child were provided in a juvenile facility operated by the
Department.
No child shall be placed outside the Commonwealth without first complying with the appropriate provisions of Chapter 10.1 (§ 63.1-219.1 et seq.) of Title 63.1 or with regulations of the State Board of Social Services relating to resident children placed out of the Commonwealth.
