What does concurrent planning involve in the context of child welfare?

Scheduling multiple therapy sessions
Simultaneously working towards family reunification and alternative permanency options
Implementing a single plan with no alternatives
Preparing for court hearings

The correct answer is: Simultaneously working towards family reunification and alternative permanency options

Concurrent planning in the context of child welfare involves simultaneously working towards family reunification and alternative permanency options. This approach allows child welfare agencies to make progress towards reuniting the child with their birth family while also creating a backup plan for the child in case reunification is not possible or safe. It involves considering multiple options and being proactive in creating a plan that prioritizes the best interest of the child. This ensures that in case the primary goal of family reunification is not achieved, there is already a plan in place to provide the child with a stable and permanent living situation.
