20-OCFS-ADM-22-R1 - Persons In Need of Supervision Reform Changes (Revised 11/08/2023)
The purpose of this Administrative Directive (ADM) is to provide an updated outline and description of the changes made to Article 7 of the Family Court Act (FCA) to enact Persons In Need of Supervision (PINS) reform effective January 1, 2020. Please note that provisions related to truancy allegations of youth, pursuant to Chapter 362 of the Laws of 2018, went into effect as of March 7, 2019. In accordance with legislation enacted in 2017, all state reimbursement funding for PINS placements was eliminated as of January 1, 2020. As such, this guidance is necessary to outline the impacts of the 2019 Persons In Need of Supervision (PINS) reform legislation, which limits the settings PINS respondent youth can be placed, eliminates the use of detention for PINS youth, and sets firm time limits regarding placement periods and the filing of placement extensions. This ADM replaces 19-OCFS-ADM-22—Persons In Need of Supervision Reform Changes, which was previously issued.
