Allows family interactions to continue during child in need of assistance proceedings unless detrimental to the child.

This bill modifies the rules for family interactions during ongoing child in need of assistance proceedings. It allows interactions to continue unless a court finds substantial evidence that they would cause an imminent risk to the child’s life or health. Previously, interactions could be halted if a parent failed to comply with court orders or department requirements. The changes aim to ensure family interactions continue unless they pose a clear and immediate danger to the child.
