California AB1967 allows nonminors to petition for dependency jurisdiction if they meet specific criteria.
California AB1967 amends the Welfare and Institutions Code to allow nonminors to petition the juvenile court for dependency jurisdiction if they meet certain criteria. These include being a former dependent who received aid after turning 18 but before 21, or being a nonminor who received adoption assistance after 18 and whose adoptive parents died before they turned 21. The bill also allows nonminors to enter into a voluntary reentry agreement to establish eligibility for foster care benefits.
