Summary

The bill mandates that licensed group homes serving adults with developmental disabilities install cameras (video only, no audio) in shared spaces, but only after every resident and their authorized representative request and give written consent. It also sets rules for staff consent, visitor notices, footage retention, and regular inspections. The goal is to give residents and families a tool for safety while protecting privacy rights.
