AI Summary

This bill directs the Oregon Youth Authority (OYA), a state agency responsible for juvenile justice services, to conduct a comprehensive study on improving its service delivery to youth in Oregon. The bill requires OYA to research and evaluate options for enhancing its programs and support systems for young people, with the goal of developing more effective approaches to youth services. The authority is mandated to prepare a report with its findings and potential legislative recommendations, which must be submitted to the legislative interim committees focused on human services by September 15, 2026.
