What constitutes reunification criteria?

1. Completion of parental training courses, stable income, and permanent housing

2. Psychological evaluation, routine drug screenings, and community service

3. Safety of the home environment, parental capability, and child's willingness

4. All of the above

The correct answer is: All of the above

Reunification criteria refers to the requirements that must be met in order for a child to be safely returned to their parent or guardian after being in foster care. Option A includes some but not all necessary criteria, as completion of parental training courses, stable income, and permanent housing are important factors but may not be the only ones necessary for reunification. Option B includes criteria that may be necessary in some cases, such as psychological evaluation and routine drug screenings, but these are not requirements for all cases of reunification. Option C is partially correct, as the safety of the home environment and the parental capability are important factors, but the child's willingness is not typically considered in reunification criteria. Therefore, the most accurate answer is D, as all of these factors may be considered in the reunification process depending on the specific circumstances of each case.
