2. The Legislature finds and declares that: each child requiring resource family care should reside in a safe home with a nurturing substitute family who can meet the child's individual needs; the most effective way to ensure the health, safety, general well-being and physical, emotional, social and educational needs of a child residing in a resource family home is to require the annual inspection and monitoring of a resource family home and to obligate a person to secure and maintain a license in order to provide resource family care to a child; therefore, it is in the public interest to license resource family parents and regulate resource family homes in order to ensure the safety, health and proper development of children placed in resource family care.
