These are recommended procedures developed by the National Alliance for Drug Endangered Children.  Various localities may need to adjust the strategies depending on their resources.  As local, state and federal protocols are approved and implemented, this information will be updated.

Children found in Meth houses may be affected by the chemicals and drugs long after they are removed from the scene.  To continue protecting them, a plan for long term follow up is vital.

Law Enforcement:
 Update databases as needed to track case.

Child Protective Services:
Input all the gathered information into a database as determined by local, state and national protocols.

Medical Personnel:
1) Repeat medical evaluation in 30 days, six months and one year intervals.
2) Follow up developmental evaluations as needed based on the initial evaluations.
3) Follow up mental health interventions and assessments as needed.
