Policy Library Search

Welcome to the Internet Policy Library for the Administration for Children's Services (ACS). We are committed to making our policies freely available, to promote a transparent, accountable, and responsive system. The library is always being updated as we work to add all of our current policies, starting with the most recent.

Please note that OCFS issues statewide child welfare guidance.

To find a policy: In the search fields below, enter a keyword (e.g., "LGBTQ," "detention," etc.) and/or a date range, or leave both fields blank for a full list of the policies in this library.

Please note: The search function currently searches all city agency policies, and thus will not generate policies specific to child welfare.

Contact ACS if you have any questions or comments about ACS policies.
