Foster care policies and procedures in South Carolina are revised, including the establishment of local review boards and immunity for board members.
The bill amends South Carolina's foster care policies and procedures, establishing local review boards to oversee foster care cases. These boards are tasked with reviewing cases, participating in family court proceedings, and developing policies for privately placed children. The Department of Children's Advocacy is directed to provide administrative and technical assistance to these boards. Members of the local review boards are granted immunity from liability for acts performed in good faith, excluding gross negligence.
