SR 162 Louisiana Senate · 2025 Regular Session

CHILDREN: Requests the Division of Administration's Office of Technology Services to convene a working group that includes every state agency with responsibility for child safety, welfare, and protection.

This resolution requests Louisiana's Office of Technology Services (OTS) to form a working group including all state agencies responsible for child safety, welfare, and protection. The working group must develop better technology systems for sharing child abuse and neglect data across agencies, with OTS required to report quarterly to the legislature on its progress. The resolution aims to improve coordination among agencies that previously operated separate IT systems before OTS centralized technology services in 2014.
