Authorizing victims of childhood abuse to access records related to substantiated reports or investigations of abuse or neglect and extending the time to file civil actions for recovery of damages caused by childhood sexual abuse.
HB 2093 allows victims of childhood sexual abuse in Kansas to access official records from substantiated abuse or neglect investigations. It also extends the deadline for filing civil lawsuits seeking damages from such abuse. The bill amends Kansas statutes 38-2212 (governing access to child welfare records) and 60-523 (setting civil filing deadlines). This directly affects adult survivors who may have previously missed filing deadlines due to the prior statute of limitations. The law provides clearer access to verified case records to support legal claims.
