SB 2772 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the dissemination of juvenile justice information by the Texas Juvenile Justice Department.

SB 2772 amends Texas law to clarify who can access juvenile justice information held by the Texas Juvenile Justice Department. It specifies that agencies like criminal justice departments, the Texas Education Agency, health agencies, and universities may access non-identifiable information for research or statistics without special agreements. For identifiable information, the department must require written agreements with strict security, confidentiality, and usage limits. The bill takes effect September 1, 2025, and directly affects research organizations, government agencies, and the department itself in how they handle juvenile justice data.
