Renew the dependency and neglect court system task force
This bill extends the Montana Task Force on Dependency and Neglect Court System and outlines its membership and duties. The task force will consist of 12 members appointed by the legislature, governor, and judicial branch, including representatives from child protection, law enforcement, tribal communities, and public health agencies. Its primary responsibility is to study whether Montana should create a separate court system for dependency and neglect cases or improve the existing court system to better serve children and families. The task force must examine various options including alternative court structures, funding needs, and how to handle cases involving justice-involved parents.
