WPF JU 03.0410 (07/2018) - JuCR 3.8; RCW 13.34.046, .110, .130, .132
1.4 Basis: The court heard testimony The parties submitted an Agreed Order
The child is 12 years old or older and the court made the inquiry required by
RCW 13.34.100(7).
II. Findings and Conclusions
Except where otherwise indicated, the following facts have been established by a preponderance of
evidence:
2.1 Child’s Indian Status: On this date On _______________, the court asked each
participant on the record whether the participant knows or has reason to know the child is an
Indian child.
The petitioner has has not made a good faith effort to determine whether the child is an
Indian child.
Based upon the following, there is not a reason to know the child is an Indian child as
defined in RCW 13.38.040 and 25 U.S.C. § 1903(4), and the Federal and Washington
State Indian Child Welfare Acts do not apply to this proceeding:
.
Based upon the following, there is reason to know the child is an Indian child as defined
in RCW 13.38.040 and 25 U.S.C. § 1903(4), and the Federal and Washington State
Indian Child Welfare Acts apply to this proceeding, unless and until it is determined on
the record that the child does not meet the definition of an Indian child:
.
Based on the following summary, the petitioner used due diligence to identify and
work with the tribes of which there is reason to know the child may be a member or
eligible for membership, to verify whether the child is in fact a member (or the
biological parent is a member and the child is eligible for membership).
___________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________.
The facts establish by clear, cogent and convincing evidence, including the
testimony of a qualified expert witness, that continued custody of the child by the
mother father Indian custodian is likely to result in serious emotional or
physical damage to the child.
DCYF made active efforts by actively working with the parent, parents, or Indian
Custodian to engage them in remedial services and rehabilitative programs to
prevent the breakup of the Indian family beyond simply providing referrals to
such services, but those efforts have been unsuccessful.
The petitioner has has not provided notice of this proceeding as required by RCW
13.38.070 and 25 U.S.C. § 1912(a) to all tribes to which the petitioner or court knows or
has reason to know the child may be a member or eligible for membership if the
biological parent is also a member.
2.2 Placement:
The child should be placed or remain in the home of the mother father legal
custodian guardian.
It is currently contrary to the child’s welfare to return home. The child should be placed
or remain in the custody, control and care of DCYF a relative an other suitable
person for the following reasons:
Order of Disposition on Dependency (ORDD) - Page 2 of 8
WPF JU 03.0410 (07/2018) - JuCR 3.8; RCW 13.34.046, .110, .130, .132
there is no parent or guardian available to care for the child;
the parent or guardian is unwilling to take custody of the child;
the court finds by clear, cogent and convincing evidence that a manifest danger
exists that the child will suffer serious abuse or neglect if the child is not removed
from the home, and an order under RCW 26.44.063 will not protect the child from
danger.
The child should be placed or remain in:
relative placement.
placement with a suitable person and such placement is in the child’s best
interests.
placement with an adoptive parent or other person with whom the child’s siblings
or half-siblings live.
licensed care:
pending completion of DCYF investigation of relative placement options.
because there is no relative, or other suitable person who is willing,
appropriate, and available to care for the child, with whom the child has a
relationship and is comfortable.
because there is reasonable cause to believe that relative placement would
jeopardize the safety or welfare of the child; and/or hinder efforts to reunite
the parent(s) and child.
The child is an Indian child as defined in RCW 13.38.040, and this placement complies
with the placement priorities in RCW 13.38.180, and 25 U.S.C. §1915.
2.3 Reasonable Efforts:
DCYF made reasonable efforts to prevent or eliminate the need for removal of the child from
the child's home; but those efforts were unsuccessful because:
The health, safety, and welfare of the child cannot be adequately protected in the
home.
Specific services have been offered or provided to the parent(s), guardian or
legal custodian and have failed to prevent the need for out-of-home placement and
make it possible for the child to return home. The following services have been
offered or provided to the child and the child's parent(s), guardian or legal
custodian:
as listed in the social study; and/or
_______________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________
______________________________________________________.
housing assistance, if applicable.
The whereabouts of the mother father alleged father guardian or
legal custodian are unknown.
Other: ________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________.
Reasonable efforts are not required at this time to attempt to reunify the child with his/her
parent(s), guardian or legal custodian because:
The child has been abandoned.
The existence of aggravated circumstances makes it unlikely that services will
effectuate the return of the child to the parent in the near future. In determining
whether aggravated circumstances exist, the court considered and found:
Order of Disposition on Dependency (ORDD) - Page 3 of 8
WPF JU 03.0410 (07/2018) - JuCR 3.8; RCW 13.34.046, .110, .130, .132
that the following factor(s) listed in RCW 13.34.132, exist:
_____________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________.
other:______________________________________________________.
The court ordered the child removed from the home pursuant to RCW 13.34.130(1)(b),
and DCYF has recommended that a petition be filed seeking termination of the parent-
child relationship between the child's mother father and the child. Because of
abandonment of the child and/or the existence of aggravated circumstances as set
forth above, filing of a termination petition is in the child's best interest and DCYF is not
required to make reasonable efforts to reunify the family.
2.4 Sibling contact:
The court ordered the child removed from the home and it is is not in the child’s
best interest to be placed with or to have contact or visits with these siblings (which could
include step-siblings if there is a pre-existing relationship and the child is comfortable with
the step-siblings):
.
and, a) the court has jurisdiction over the child(ren) listed above or the parents of the
child(ren) for whom there is no jurisdiction are willing to agree; and b) there is no
reasonable cause to believe that the health, safety, or welfare of any child would be
jeopardized or that efforts to reunite the parent and child would be hindered by
placement, contact or visitation.
2.5 Child’s school:
The court ordered the child removed from the home pursuant to RCW 13.34.130(1)(b) and
placed into nonparental or nonrelative care. A placement that allows the child to remain in
the same school he or she attended prior to the start of the dependency proceeding is
is not practical and in the child’s best interests.
The child meets the criteria for appointment of an educational liaison. DCYF recommends
that the court appoint (name) _____________________ as the child’s educational liaison.
The parents are not able to serve as the educational liaison because:
