Chaptered by Secretary of State - Chapter 636, Statutes of 2026.

Sep 27, 2026

Summary

The bill expands California’s foster‑care system so that nonminor dependents can keep cash assistance, adoption assistance, CalWORKs and Kin‑GAP benefits until they turn 21, as long as they meet education or employment criteria. It also creates a streamlined process for courts to resume dependency jurisdiction for these youth, sets stricter background‑check rules for alternate guardians, and caps county spending on the extended benefits. The changes aim to give older youth a smoother transition to adulthood while protecting state resources.
