Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

3 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 1 costs, 0 mixed.

Notice and appeal before registry listing

The Department must give you written notice before adding your name to the Adult Protective Services or child protection registry. For child cases, the notice must arrive at least 14 days before entry. The notice states the report’s nature and classification and explains your rights to ask for changes, expungement, and to appeal. It must be sent by certified mail with return receipt or by first-class mail to your last-known address. If you file a proper appeal on time (14 days for child cases), you are not listed until the Department issues a final order.

Prevention help after no further action

When a child-protection report is closed with no further action, the Department may share information on prevention services. It may also refer your family for a prevention case. These are discretionary referrals to community supports and services.

Higher fee for registry record checks

The fee for each central registry records check is now up to $5 per request, up from $3. The Department sends collected fees to the Health and Human Services Cash Fund. You can ask for a waiver if paying is an undue financial hardship.
