Foster care: insurance.
Summary
Existing law establishes the Foster Family Home and Small Family Home Insurance Fund to be used, upon appropriation by the Legislature, by the State Department of Social Services to pay, on behalf of foster family homes and small family homes, as defined, claims of foster children, their parents, guardians, or guardians ad litem resulting from occurrences peculiar to the foster-care relationship and the provision of foster-care services. Existing law specifies costs for which the fund is not liable, including any loss arising out of a dishonest, fraudulent, criminal, or intentional act. This bill would, instead, specify that the fund is not liable for any loss arising out of a dishonest, fraudulent, criminal, or intentional act of a foster parent, and also would make various technical, nonsubstantive changes.
