Nevada § 127.008 - State Register of Children with Special Needs

§ 127.008. State Register of Children with Special Needs

1. The Division shall establish a Register of Children with Special Needs. The Register must include descriptive information on every child with special needs

for whom a prospective adoptive parent is not identified within 3 months after the

child becomes available for adoption, but must not include any personal information

which reveals the identity of the child or the child’s parents. A copy of the Register must be made available for review by prospective adoptive parents

at each office of the Division. 2. As used in this section, “child with special needs” means a child for whom placement

with an adoptive parent is, in the opinion of the Administrator of the Division or

his or her designee, made more difficult because of the child's age, race or number

of siblings, or because the child suffers from a severe or chronic medical, physical,

mental or emotional condition.
