When a child is placed in out-of-home
care, the primary goal of social services
agencies is to reunite the child with his or
her family. Concurrent planning is a type of
permanency planning in which reunification
services are provided to the family of the
child at the same time that an alternative
permanency plan is made for the child, in
case reunification efforts fail. To be effective,
concurrent planning requires not only the
identification of an alternative plan but
also the implementation of active efforts
toward both plans simultaneously with the
full knowledge of all participants. Compared
with more traditional sequential planning
for permanency, in which one permanency
goal is ruled out before an alternative goal is
identified, concurrent planning may provide
earlier permanency for the child.
