§ 32-1805. TEMPORARY CARE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM requirements
(1) For a temporary care assistance program, the department of health and welfare shall check against the state’s sex offender registry operated by the Idaho state police and against the national sex offender public website operated by the United States department of justice that checks names and addresses in the registries before allowing someone to become a temporary caregiver within the program’s service. The process must include a criminal history and background check conducted by the department of health and welfare, pursuant to chapter 25[27], title 56 , Idaho Code, which shall be conducted in the same manner as background checks for foster parents. The background check shall be fingerprint-based and shall require that the fingerprints of temporary caregivers be submitted to the Idaho state police to process the background check through the state criminal history repository and the federal bureau of investigation for a national criminal history search. The department of health and welfare shall not charge a fee for background checks required by this section.
(2) The temporary caregiver’s residence must be inspected annually by the affiliated temporary care assistance program.
(3) The temporary care assistance program must disclose to any parent or guardian using its services that any delegation of parental rights and responsibilities shall be made to a temporary caregiver, not to the temporary care assistance program itself.
