HB 858 Ohio House · 136th Legislature (2025-2026)

Designate Foster Youth Bill of Rights Awareness Day

HB 858 designates May 15 as "Foster Youth Bill of Rights Awareness Day" to raise public awareness about the rights of children in the foster care system. The bill achieves this by adding a new section to the state's Revised Code that officially recognizes the date. This legislative action does not alter existing laws or funding but serves as a symbolic measure to highlight the importance of protecting foster youth.
