Establishes the "Study Commission on Grandparents Raising Grandchildren"
This bill creates the "Study Commission on Grandparents Raising Grandchildren" to examine challenges faced by Missouri grandparents raising their grandchildren. The commission, composed of 30+ members including state agency directors, advocacy representatives, and grandparents themselves, will study issues like healthcare, education, and financial support. It must submit findings and recommendations to the Missouri General Assembly by January 15, 2027, after which the commission will dissolve. The bill does not enact new laws but directs a formal study to inform future policy decisions.
