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. It mandates that the department obtain key details about their foster care history (including age entered and duration of care) and send a copy of these records to the facility where the person is held. This applies to all correctional facilities, including juvenile detention centers. The policy aims to provide relevant background information to correctional staff about individuals with foster care experience.
