333.6232 Waiting list for services; placement of parent in priority position.

Sec. 6232.

(1) Subject to subsection (2), if a licensee under this part maintains a waiting list for services, the licensee shall place a parent whose child has been removed from the home under the child protection laws of this state or is in danger of being removed from the home under the child protection laws of this state because of the parent's substance abuse in a priority position on the waiting list above all other applicants with substantially similar clinical conditions.

(2) If a licensee receives federal substance abuse prevention and treatment block grant funds, the priority position of the parent on the waiting list granted under subsection (1) will come after a priority position on the waiting list granted under the conditions of the federal block grant. However, if the parent qualifies for priority status on the waiting list under the conditions of the federal block grant, the licensee shall place the parent in that priority position on the waiting list.
