CHILDREN/DCFS: Reorganizes the Department of Children and Family Services (EN NO IMPACT See Note)

The bill's title and preamble were updated to reflect the creation of the 'office of child support' and 'office of child welfare' and the elimination of the 'office of children and family services.'

References to the 'office of children and family services' within the Children's Code were updated to specify the new 'office of children and family services, child welfare, Department of Children and Family Services' structure.

Legal requirements for interagency committees and multidisciplinary investigative teams were adjusted to list the new specific offices as responsible entities.

New co-sponsors (Senators Bass, Boudreaux, Cathey, Cloud, Connick, Henry, McMath, Miller, Mizell, Myers, Reese, Selders, and Wheat) were added to the enrolled version.

The list of repealed statutes was reorganized and condensed, removing redundant line breaks and slightly altering the presentation of R.S. 36:474 and R.S. 46:51.

A new paragraph was added to the post-adoption continuing contact agreement form, stating that any disputes or litigation regarding the agreement's terms will not affect the validity of the surrender, termination of parental rights, adoption, or custody.

Added a large number of co-sponsors to the bill's header, expanding the list of representatives supporting the legislation.

Removed the original sponsors' names from the bill's header as part of the sponsorship list update.

Adjusted page headers and line numbers to reflect the reengrossed status, but no substantive policy, funding, or eligibility changes were made to the bill's text.
