Rep. Scott Hilton

Maddy summaryHR 816 is a procedural resolution creating a House Study Committee to examine the feasibility of establishing a Georgia registry for individuals substantiated to have abused at-risk populations, including people with disabilities and older adults. The committee, composed of legislative and non-legislative members (including disability/elder advocates and state officials), will study existing models like Tennessee’s registry, assess costs and due process protections, and evaluate impacts on caregiving employment. It will make recommendations by December 2025 but does not create the registry itself. This study directly affects vulnerable populations and systems serving them, focusing on prevention through policy analysis.
