Bill > HB1305

This bill extends the reporting requirements and repeal date for the Colorado Child Abuse Prevention Trust Fund. Specifically, the bill requires the Colorado Department of Early Childhood to continue commissioning an independent evaluation of the trust fund, which will analyze its administrative costs, cost-effectiveness, and impact on reducing and preventing child abuse. The department must submit a report of this evaluation to the house and senate health and human services committees by November 1, 2029. The bill also extends the repeal date for sections of the law related to the trust fund from July 1, 2027, to July 1, 2030, effectively giving the state more time to study and maintain the trust fund's operations. The legislation ensures continued oversight and assessment of child abuse prevention efforts while providing additional time for comprehensive evaluation of the trust fund's effectiveness.
