AN ACT CONCERNING THE PROVISION OF NOTICE TO A PARENT OR GUARDIAN OF A MINOR CHILD WHO HAS RECEIVED PREGNANCY-RELATED HEALTH CARE SERVICES.
HB 5307 requires healthcare providers to notify a minor's parent or guardian after performing an abortion on an unemancipated minor, with specific procedures. It mandates that providers give minors comprehensive pregnancy-related counseling before an abortion (including alternatives like adoption or continuing the pregnancy) and have them sign a form confirming they received this information. After the procedure, providers must notify at least one parent or guardian no later than 48 hours, unless the minor reports abuse (then notification goes to an alternative adult specified by the minor). This bill directly affects minors seeking abortion care, their parents/guardians, and healthcare providers in Connecticut. The law does not restrict abortion access but adds a notification requirement following the procedure.
