Any agency employee who receives information concerning or makes a personal observation of a violation of this chapter of the DCMR that is not required to be reported to CFSA pursuant to §§6024 shall immediately notify the agency.
Upon receiving notification pursuant to §§6025.1, the agency shall immediately investigate. The investigation shall include, as appropriate, unannounced visit(s) to the foster home, interview(s) with any foster child in the foster home, and interview(s) with the resource parent.
If an investigation undertaken pursuant to §§6025.2 indicates possible abuse, neglect, or another risk to a foster child's health or safety, the agency shall immediately notify CFSA as required by §§6024.
The agency shall notify CFSA of both the notification required by §§6025.1 and the results of the investigation required by §§6025.2 within ten (10) business days after the notification.
If the information provided to CFSA indicates possible abuse, neglect, or another risk to a foster child's health or safety, CFSA shall proceed in accordance with §§6024 and 6031.
The provisions of this section are in addition to the requirements of law for the reporting and investigation of suspected child abuse and neglect in the District of Columbia and, if different, in the jurisdiction in which the foster home is located.
