Notification regarding child abuse and neglect: SB-5079

Child Protective Services (CPS) must make efforts to determine the military status of parents whose children are subject to abuse or neglect allegations. Upon receiving an allegation of abuse or neglect that involves military parents or guardians, CPS must notify military law enforcement. If an allegation of abuse or neglect involving military parents or guardians is screened in and open for investigation, CPS must notify the DOD Family Advocacy Program.
