Establishes the "Uniform Unregulated Child Custody Transfer Act"

HB 1150 establishes rules for transferring child custody in Missouri, directly affecting parents, guardians, and child-placing agencies. It prohibits transfers "with the intent to abandon" custody (e.g., giving a child to someone without legal oversight), requiring such transfers to occur only through adoption, court orders, or agency placements. The bill mandates that child-placing agencies provide prospective adoptive parents with specific child-related information (medical history, cultural background, etc.) and general adoption resources before placement. Violations are punishable as class B misdemeanors, and the children’s division may intervene to protect children in prohibited transfers.
