Foster youth with children of their own will now be more likely to stay together due to the passage of AB 260 (Lopez, Chapter 511, Statutes of 2015). This bill protects parenting foster youth from unfair scrutiny by placing restrictions on the types of past information in their case file and how it is used to determine their fitness as a parent. Any party seeking to take away the child of a parenting foster youth must now also demonstrate to the court that efforts have been made to support the success of the parent to keep that family together.
