Dependent Children

Summary

The bill would mandate that the Florida Department of Children and Families and each community‑based care lead agency meet at least every three months with organizations that represent children’s lived experiences. Each meeting must have a formal agenda, and the agenda, minutes, and later biannual implementation reports must be posted on the agencies’ websites. The goal is to increase transparency and incorporate youth input into child‑welfare decisions.
