AB 118 Nevada Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Revises provisions relating to domestic relations. (BDR 11-182)

AB 118 prohibits courts from requiring children to participate in family reunification programs under specific conditions, such as if the program involves moving a child from home, changing custody, using force, or isolating them from family. The bill defines these programs as services meant to reconnect children with estranged parents or family members (including camps or workshops) and bans court orders that meet the prohibited conditions. Additionally, it mandates annual training for judges and court staff involved in child custody or domestic violence cases on recognizing abuse and prioritizing child safety, with an annual report to the legislature detailing training attendance and course content. These changes directly affect courts, children in custody cases, and court personnel handling family law matters.
