addresses the fundamentals of safety assessments and safety planning and lays out a clear
framework to assess safety-related decisions such as removal, reunification, and when to
terminate jurisdiction, provides checklists to assist judges in making reunification decisions and
provides assistance to judges on what to consider prior to terminating jurisdiction.
