4. Overview TNKids has the ability for users to record adoptive home placements whenever a child is placed in an adoptive home under a new Adoptive Placement Contract. An active custody client can only have one active Adoptive Home Placement recorded for the client at a time in the system and an Adoptive Home can never be recorded as a temporary break in placement. Whenever an active Identified Pre-Adoptive Home entry has been recorded for the custody client, then the client’s actual Adoptive Home Placement can only be recorded for the client’s Identified Pre-Adoptive Home.
