Bill Summary

An act to amend Sections 6500, 6509, and 7505 of, and to add Section 7502.6 to, the Welfare and Institutions Code, relating to developmental services, and declaring the urgency thereof, to take effect immediately.

AI Summary

This bill authorizes a court to order, until June 30, 2021, the commitment of an individual who meets specified criteria for admission due to an acute crisis to a separate and distinct unit of the Canyon Springs Community Facility. The bill also makes other conforming changes to existing laws regarding the commitment of individuals with developmental disabilities. Additionally, the bill incorporates changes to Section 6500 of the Welfare and Institutions Code proposed by another bill, SB 1494, to be operative only if this bill and SB 1494 are enacted and this bill is enacted last. The bill declares that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute due to the critical shortage of placement options for individuals with challenging mental health treatment needs who are experiencing acute crises.
