Requires foster care records of incarcerated individual to be sent to a correctional facility

This bill requires correctional facilities to receive foster care records for incarcerated individuals who were previously in foster care. Specifically, it mandates that the Department of Correction obtain records detailing when a person entered foster care and the duration of that care, then deliver copies to the correctional facility housing them. This applies to all correctional facilities, including juvenile detention centers, and directly affects incarcerated individuals with foster care histories. The policy change ensures facilities have this background information to support appropriate care and programming.
