What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, a proposed adoptive parent must complete 25 hours of

preadoption training. Of these 25 hours, six hours must be completed in person and

six hours must be targeted toward the specific needs of the child to be adopted. This

bill allows adoptive parents to complete the in-person training requirements

through a live videoconference.
