Idaho Bills

Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding extended and continued care and to revise provisions regarding relative foster care.

This bill augments recent reforms to the foster care system with two changes: 1) it would allow for extended care for youth aging out of the foster care system, not to exceed age 23 under limited circumstances; and 2) it would allow the department to establish separate licensing standards for relatives and non-relatives while maintaining health, safety, and security.
