Idaho Statutes Title 32. Domestic Relations § 32-1805. Temporary care assistance program requirements

(1) A temporary care assistance program 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 comparable to the background check processed for foster parents. The background check shall be fingerprint-based, requiring that the fingerprints of temporary caregivers be submitted to the federal bureau of investigation and the Idaho state police bureau of criminal identification to complete a national criminal history background check.

(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.
