Relating to authorizing adoption assistance agreements for certain children after a final adoption order is rendered.

This bill allows Texas' Department of Family and Protective Services to provide financial assistance to adoptive families for children diagnosed with special needs *after* an adoption is finalized. It specifically applies to children who would have qualified for such help if their special needs were identified before adoption, but were only diagnosed afterward. The assistance covers ongoing support for these children, but the department can only implement this if the legislature allocates specific funding for it. The policy change applies to all adoptions finalized on or after September 1, 2025.
