Relates to collecting data regarding alternative living arrangements for children who are at a substantial risk of maltreatment

This bill requires the Office of Children and Family Services to collect and report data on children placed in alternative living arrangements due to maltreatment investigations or related services. It defines these arrangements to include temporary stays with relatives, respite care, and voluntary foster placements, and mandates the tracking of specific details such as the number of children involved, the duration of their stay, and the outcomes of those placements. The law also instructs officials to break down this data by demographics like age, race, and ethnicity, and to publish an annual report online and share it with state leaders. Ultimately, the bill aims to improve understanding of how often children are temporarily removed from their homes and what happens to them after such interventions.
