Bill > S68

This bill establishes a bill of rights for children in foster care in Massachusetts. The key provisions include: ensuring the safety and security of children in foster care, protecting their connections to family, community, and identity, providing access to appropriate health care and accommodations, supporting their education, employment, and social connections, and ensuring they have access to necessary resources and supports, including during the transition to adulthood. The bill also provides remedies for children to file complaints and have their rights enforced if they believe any of these rights have been violated.
