 order transferring the legal custody of the child to one of the
 following for purposes of placement:
    (1)  A parent who does not have physical care of the child,
 other relative, or other suitable person.
    (2)  A child=placing agency or other suitable private
 agency, facility, or institution which is licensed or otherwise
 authorized by law to receive and provide care for the child.
    (3)  The department of human services. If the child is
 placed in a juvenile shelter care home or with an individual
 or agency as defined in section 237.1, the department shall
 assign decision=making authority to the juvenile shelter care
 home, individual, or agency for the purpose of applying the
 reasonable and prudent parent standard during the child's
 placement.
    b.  If the child is sixteen years of age or older, the
 order shall specify the services needed to assist the child in
 preparing for the transition from foster care to adulthood. If
 the child has a case permanency plan, the court shall consider
 the written transition plan of services and needs assessment
 developed for the child's case permanency plan. If the child
 does not have a case permanency plan containing the transition
 plan and needs assessment at the time the order is entered, the
 written transition plan and needs assessment shall be developed
 and submitted for the court's consideration no later than six
 months from the date of the transfer order. The court shall
 modify the initial transfer order as necessary to specify
 the services needed to assist the child in preparing for the
 transition from foster care to adulthood. If the transition
 plan identifies services or other support needed to assist
 the child when the child becomes an adult and the court deems
 it to be beneficial to the child, the court may authorize
 the individual who is the child's guardian ad litem or court
 appointed special advocate to continue a relationship with and
 provide advice to the child for a period of time beyond the
 child's eighteenth birthday.
    1A.  2.  The court shall not order group foster care
 placement of the child which is a charge upon the state if that
 placement is not in accordance with the service area plan for
 group foster care established pursuant to section 232.143 for
 the departmental service area in which the court is located.
    2.  3.  After a dispositional hearing and upon the request
 of the department, the court may enter an order appointing the
 department as the guardian of an unaccompanied refugee child or
 of a child without parent or guardian.
    3.  4.  After a dispositional hearing and upon written
 findings of fact based upon evidence in the record that an
 alternative placement set forth in subsection 1, paragraph
 "a", subparagraph (1), has previously been made and is not
 appropriate, the court may enter an order transferring the
 guardianship of the child for the purposes of subsection 9 11,
 to the director of human services for the purposes of placement
 in the Iowa juvenile home at Toledo.
    4.  5.  a.  Upon receipt of an application from the director
 of the department of human services, the court shall enter an
 order to temporarily transfer a child who has been placed in
 the Iowa juvenile home at Toledo pursuant to subsection 3 4,
 to a facility which has been designated to be an alternative
 placement site for the juvenile home, provided the court finds
 that all of the following conditions exist:
    (1)  There is insufficient time to file a motion and hold a
 hearing for a new dispositional order under section 232.103.
    (2)  Immediate removal of the child from the juvenile home
 is necessary to safeguard the child's physical or emotional
 health.
    (3)  That reasonable attempts to notify the parents,
 guardian ad litem, and attorney for the child have been made.
    b.  If the court finds the conditions in paragraph "a" exist
 and there is insufficient time to provide notice as required
 under rule of juvenile procedure 8.12, the court may enter
 an ex parte order temporarily transferring the child to the
 alternative placement site.
    c.  Within three days of the child's transfer, the director
 shall file a motion for a new dispositional order under section
 232.103 and the court shall hold a hearing concerning the
 motion within fourteen days of the child's transfer.
    5.  6.  a.  Whenever possible the court should permit the
 child to remain at home with the child's parent, guardian, or
 custodian. Custody of the child should not be transferred
 unless the court finds there is clear and convincing evidence
 that:
    (1)  The child cannot be protected from physical abuse
 without transfer of custody; or
    (2)  The child cannot be protected from some harm which would
 justify the adjudication of the child as a child in need of
 assistance and an adequate placement is available.
    b.  In order to transfer custody of the child under
 this subsection, the court must make a determination that
 continuation of the child in the child's home would be contrary
 to the welfare of the child, and shall identify the reasonable
 efforts that have been made. The court's determination
 regarding continuation of the child in the child's home,
 and regarding reasonable efforts, including those made to
 prevent removal and those made to finalize any permanency
 plan in effect, as well as any determination by the court
 that reasonable efforts are not required, must be made on
 a case=by=case basis. The grounds for each determination
 must be explicitly documented and stated in the court order.
 However, preserving the safety of the child is the paramount
 consideration. If imminent danger to the child's life or
 health exists at the time of the court's consideration, the
 determinations otherwise required under this paragraph shall
 not be a prerequisite for an order for removal of the child.
 If the court transfers custody of the child, unless the
 court waives the requirement for making reasonable efforts or
 otherwise makes a determination that reasonable efforts are not
 required, reasonable efforts shall be made to make it possible
 for the child to safely return to the family's home.
    5A.  7.  A child placed in foster care may participate in
 age or developmentally appropriate extracurricular, enrichment,
 cultural, and social activities subject to the approval
 of the child's foster parents or the appropriate licensed
 foster care facility staff. A court shall make a finding at
 all review hearings to address the child's participation in
 such activities and how barriers to participation are being
 addressed.
    6.  8.  The child shall not be placed in the state training
 school.
    7.  9.  In any order transferring custody to the department
 or an agency, or in orders pursuant to a custody order, the
 court shall specify the nature and category of disposition
 which will serve the best interests of the child, and shall
 prescribe the means by which the placement shall be monitored
 by the court. If the court orders the transfer of the custody
 of the child to the department of human services or other
 agency for placement, the department or agency shall submit
 a case permanency plan to the court and shall make every
 reasonable effort to return the child to the child's home as
 quickly as possible consistent with the best interests of the
 child. When the child is not returned to the child's home and
 if the child has been previously placed in a licensed foster
 care facility, the department or agency shall consider placing
 the child in the same licensed foster care facility. If the
 court orders the transfer of custody to a parent who does not
 have physical care of the child, other relative, or other
 suitable person, the court may direct the department or other
 agency to provide services to the child's parent, guardian,
 or custodian in order to enable them to resume custody of the
 child. If the court orders the transfer of custody to the
 department of human services or to another agency for placement
 in group foster care, the department or agency shall make every
 reasonable effort to place the child in the least restrictive,
 most family=like, and most appropriate setting available, and
 in close proximity to the parents' home, consistent with the
 child's best interests and special needs, and shall consider
 the placement's proximity to the school in which the child is
 enrolled at the time of placement.
    8.  10.  Any order transferring custody to the department
 or an agency shall include a statement informing the child's
 parent that the consequences of a permanent removal may include
 the termination of the parent's rights with respect to the
 child.
    9.  11.  An agency, facility, institution, or person to whom
 custody of the child has been transferred pursuant to this
 section shall file a written report with the court at least
 every six months concerning the status and progress of the
 child. The court shall hold a periodic dispositional review
 hearing for each child in placement pursuant to this section in
 order to determine whether the child should be returned home,
 an extension of the placement should be made, a permanency
 hearing should be held, or a termination of the parent=child
 relationship proceeding should be instituted. The placement
 shall be terminated and the child returned to the child's home
 if the court finds by a preponderance of the evidence that the
 child will not suffer harm in the manner specified in section
 232.2, subsection 6. If the placement is extended, the court
 shall determine whether additional services are necessary to
 facilitate the return of the child to the child's home, and
 if the court determines such services are needed, the court
 shall order the provision of such services. When the child
 is not returned to the child's home and if the child has been
 previously placed in a licensed foster care facility, the
 department or agency responsible for the placement of the child
 shall consider placing the child in the same licensed foster
 care facility.
    a.  The initial dispositional review hearing shall not be
 waived or continued beyond six months after the date of the
 dispositional hearing.
    b.  Subsequent dispositional review hearings shall not be
 waived or continued beyond twelve months after the date of the
 most recent dispositional review hearing.
    c.  For purposes of this subsection, a hearing held pursuant
 to section 232.103 satisfies the requirements for initial
 dispositional review or subsequent permanency hearing.
    10.  12.  a.  As used in this division, "reasonable efforts"
 means the efforts made to preserve and unify a family prior
 to the out=of=home placement of a child in foster care or
 to eliminate the need for removal of the child or make it
 possible for the child to safely return to the family's home.
 Reasonable efforts shall include but are not limited to giving
 consideration, if appropriate, to interstate placement of a
 child in the permanency planning decisions involving the child
 and giving consideration to in=state and out=of=state placement
 options at a permanency hearing and when using concurrent
 planning. If returning the child to the family's home is not
 appropriate or not possible, reasonable efforts shall include
 the efforts made in a timely manner to finalize a permanency
 plan for the child. A child's health and safety shall be the
 paramount concern in making reasonable efforts. Reasonable
 efforts may include but are not limited to family=centered
 services, if the child's safety in the home can be maintained
 during the time the services are provided. In determining
 whether reasonable efforts have been made, the court shall
 consider both of the following:
    (1)  The type, duration, and intensity of services or support
 offered or provided to the child and the child's family. If
 family=centered services were not provided, the court record
 shall enumerate the reasons the services were not provided,
 including but not limited to whether the services were not
 available, not accepted by the child's family, judged to be
 unable to protect the child and the child's family during
 the time the services would have been provided, judged to be
 unlikely to be successful in resolving the problems which would
 lead to removal of the child, or other services were found to
 be more appropriate.
    (2)  The relative risk to the child of remaining in the
 child's home versus removal of the child.
    b.  As used in this section, "family=centered services" means
 services and other support intended to safely maintain a child
 with the child's family or with a relative, to safely and in a
 timely manner return a child to the home of the child's parent
 or relative, or to promote achievement of concurrent planning
 goals by identifying and helping the child secure placement
 for adoption, with a guardian, or with other alternative
 permanent family connections. Family=centered services are
 adapted to the individual needs of a family in regard to the
 specific services and other support provided to the child's
 family and the intensity and duration of service delivery.
 Family=centered services are intended to preserve a child's
 connections to the child's neighborhood, community, and family
 and to improve the overall capacity of the child's family to
 provide for the needs of the children in the family.
    11.  13.  The performance of reasonable efforts to place a
 child for adoption or with a guardian may be made concurrently
 with making reasonable efforts as defined in this section.
    12.  14.  If the court determines by clear and convincing
 evidence that aggravated circumstances exist, with written
 findings of fact based upon evidence in the record, the court
 may waive the requirement for making reasonable efforts. The
 existence of aggravated circumstances is indicated by any of
 the following:
    a.  The parent has abandoned the child.
    b.  The court finds the circumstances described in section
 232.116, subsection 1, paragraph "i", are applicable to the
 child.
    c.  The parent's parental rights have been terminated under
 section 232.116 or involuntarily terminated by an order of a
 court of competent jurisdiction in another state with respect
 to another child who is a member of the same family, and there
 is clear and convincing evidence to show that the offer or
 receipt of services would not be likely within a reasonable
 period of time to correct the conditions which led to the
 child's removal.
    d.  The parent has been convicted of the murder of another
 child of the parent.
    e.  The parent has been convicted of the voluntary
 manslaughter of another child of the parent.
    f.  The parent has been convicted of aiding or abetting,
 attempting, conspiring in, or soliciting the commission of
 the murder or voluntary manslaughter of another child of the
 parent.
    g.  The parent has been convicted of a felony assault which
 resulted in serious bodily injury of the child or of another
 child of the parent.
    13.  15.  Unless prohibited by the court order transferring
 custody of the child for placement or other court order or the
 department or agency that received the custody transfer finds
 that allowing the visitation would not be in the child's best
 interest, the department or agency may authorize reasonable
 visitation with the child by the child's grandparent,
 great=grandparent, or other adult relative who has established
 a substantial relationship with the child.
    Sec. 32.  Section 235B.3A, subsection 3, Code 2017, is

 grievance procedures of section 20.18 relating to job

 students who are either at risk of dropping out or have dropped
 out. An alternative options education program may be provided
 in a district, through a sharing agreement with a school in a
 contiguous district, or through an areawide program available
 at the community college serving the merged area in which
 the school district is located. Each area education agency
 shall provide assistance in establishing a plan to provide
 alternative education options to students attending a public
 school in a district served by the agency.
    2.  If a district has not adopted a plan as required in this
 section and implemented the plan by January 15, 1996, the area
 education agency serving the district shall assist the district
 with developing a plan and an alternative options education
 program for the pupil. When a plan is developed, the district

 shall reimburse the area education agency for the actual costs
 incurred by the area education agency under this section.
