To comply with the provision of the Family First Prevention Services Act, Public Law 115-123, enacted February 9, 2018, PHHS is proposing amendments to the administrative rules governing the Family Safety Program.

These amendments add definitions related to “licensed residential family-based treatment facility for substance abuse”.  These changes have been made in 10A CAR 70E .0602 and 10A CAR 70B .0102.

Pursuant to C.C. 150-4 the period for public comment of any rule, except as otherwise provided in this chapter, shall be 20 days from the publication date of the Cherokee One Feather or newspapers in which notice is given of the proposed adoption, amendment or repeal of said rule.

Comments on these rules may be submitted in writing via the mail at EBCI PHHS: ATTN PROPOSED RULE CHANGE, PO Box 666, Cherokee, NC 28719; via email at barbpark@nc-cherokee.com, or by hand delivering your written comments to the front desk of the Family Safety Program at 117 John Crowe Hill Rd, Cherokee, NC 28719.
