4. The Commissioner of Children and Families shall develop an interdepartmental plan for the implementation of an individualized, appropriate child and family driven care system for children with special emotional needs and for the reduction of inappropriate use of out-of-home placements of these children. The plan shall first address children ready to be returned from in-State and out-of-State residential facilities, and those at imminent risk of extended out-of-home placement.
The commissioner shall consult with appropriate representatives from the State departments of Education, Human Services, Corrections, Health and Senior Services and Community Affairs, the Office of the Public Defender, the Statewide Children's Coordinating Council in the Department of Children and Families, the Administrative Office of the Courts, and Statewide family advocacy groups, in the development of the plan.
