For purposes of civil proceedings under the Code for Care of Children, the legislature defined types of behavior which would constitute sexual abuse by reference to sex offenses in the criminal code, however, it did not thereby intend to adopt a criminal definition of sexual abuse. Thus, while certain acts described as sex offenses in the criminal statutes may not be punishable crimes if committed with a child age 16 years or older; those same acts may constitute abuse of that child under the definition of that term in the Code for Care of Children. Cited herein: K.S.A. 21-3501, 21-3503, 21-3504 as amended by L. 1983, ch. 109; 21-3509, 21-3510, 21-3511, 21-3516, K.S.A. 1982 Supp. 38-1502 as amended by L. 1983, ch. 140, 42 U.S.C. sections 5102, 5104, 45 C.F.R. section 1340.2, 1340.14, 48 Fed.

Book Description
Pursuant to K.S.A. 8-1008, as amended by 1983 Substitute for House Bill No. 2132, community-based alcohol and drug safety action programs are authorized to perform a variety of services relating to persons who have been arrested for the offense of driving while under the influence of alcohol. Included in such services are evaluations of persons being considered for diversion or who have been convicted but not yet sentenced. Certification of the programs which are authorized to so act in each judicial district is determined by the administrative judge of the district or, in the event such judge declines to do so, by the Secretary of the Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services. Such certification is for the limited purpose of providing the services specified by K.S.A. 8-1008, as amended, and does not act as a substitute for licensure under K.S.A. 65-4001 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲. and 65-4601 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲. In that diagnostic services are included within the definition of treatment contained in the latter acts, a community-based alcohol and drug safety action program must be licensed under such acts before it may offer such services under K.S.A. 8-1008, as amended. Cited herein: K.S.A. 8-1008, 8-1567, both as amended by 1983 Substitute for House Bill No. 2132, K.S.A. 65-4001, 65-4003, 65-4601, K.A.R. 1982 Supp. 30-31-2, L. 1982, ch. 144.
