SB 5381: Dependent children

Concerning dependent children.

Summary

  • If a child is removed from home due to allegations of abuse or neglect, returned home, and subsequently removed and placed in out-of-home care, the court must hold a hearing no later than 30 days from the date of the removal to determine the appropriate action, including a change in the permanency plan or the filing of a termination petition. The best interests of the child must be the primary consideration.
