An Act relating to court-ordered compensatory visitation with a child; and providing for an effective date.
HB 307 requires courts to order compensatory visitation between a child and a parent or guardian when scheduled visitation was missed due to an unsubstantiated investigation by Alaska's Department of Family and Community Services (under AS 47.10.011). It applies only if the original court order specified visitation times, the investigation was found unsubstantiated, and the custodian provided no valid reason for missing the visit. The court must order makeup visitation matching the original schedule’s type and duration, to occur within two years, with conditions to protect the child’s best interests. This bill directly affects parents in custody cases where visitation was blocked during an unsubstantiated child welfare investigation.
