An Act to establish the Leslie law
This bill (S 103) allows surveillance in out-of-home care facilities - such as foster homes or group homes - when an abuse allegation is made. It directly affects these facilities and the children or vulnerable adults living there. The key provision requires facilities to implement surveillance (like cameras) during investigations into abuse claims. This creates a concrete policy change for how abuse allegations are documented and verified in these settings.
