AI Summary

This bill requires the Department of Human Services (DHS), either directly or through a child-placing agency, to provide a duffel bag to children in foster care who do not have a suitcase or other suitable bag for their personal belongings, and as funds permit, DHS may also include personal hygiene items or other personal supplies in these bags. The Director of Human Services is authorized to create necessary rules to put these provisions into effect, and the act is set to become law on July 1, 2026, with an emergency clause declaring it immediately necessary for the public peace, health, or safety, meaning it will take effect upon passage and approval.
