Children; modifying membership of the Oklahoma Commission on Children and Youth. Effective date.

SB 440 reduces the Oklahoma Commission on Children and Youth membership from 18 to 16 members. It updates the commission's composition by specifying appointments: 3 by the Senate President Pro Tempore, 3 by the House Speaker, 3 by the Governor, plus 3 ex-officio members (Health Care Authority Administrator, Rehabilitation Services Director, and SJR 13 Oversight Committee Chair), the Juvenile Affairs Executive Director, and 5 members appointed by the Governor from lists provided by specific child-serving organizations. The bill also requires appointed members to have experience in children's services and sets an effective date of November 1, 2025. This is a procedural change to the commission's structure, not a new policy.
