Wisconsin Order for Change in Placement (In-Home to Out-of-Home Placement Only) is a court order issued by a judge in the State of Wisconsin to transfer a child from an in-home or family environment to an out-of-home placement such as a foster home, group home, or other residential placement. The order requires that the Department of Children and Families (DCF) and the appropriate county agency provide all necessary services and supports to ensure the child’s safety, stability, and well-being. The most common types of Wisconsin Order for Change in Placement (In-Home to Out-of-Home Placement Only) are Emergency Change in Placement (CCIP), Immediate Change in Placement (ICP), and Long-Term Change in Placement (LIP). An Emergency Change in Placement is used when the child is in immediate danger and needs to be removed from the home or family environment for their safety. An Immediate Change in Placement is used when the child needs to be removed from the home or family environment, but the danger is not immediate. A Long-Term Change in Placement is used when the child needs to be placed in an out-of-home placement for an extended period of time. In all cases, the Wisconsin Order for Change in Placement (In-Home to Out-of-Home Placement Only) requires that DCF and the county agency provide the necessary services and supports to ensure the child’s safety, stability, and well-being. The order is a legal document and must be followed in order to ensure the child’s protection.
