Provider Licensure Process
Process for Residential Child Care (RCC) and Child Placement Agency (CPA) Licensures.
If you are interested in becoming a licensed Residential Child Care provider through The Department of Human Services (DHS) please note that the process has changed. Please visit the Governor’s Office for Children website – https://goc.maryland.gov/spe/.
If you are interested in becoming a licensed Child Placement Agency, you must have a signed letter from your Governing Board identifying the Chief Administrator representing your Child Placement Agency. The letter must also include a copy of the Chief Administrator credentials. Please direct further inquiries to OLM.provider@maryland.gov.
