SB 31 allows adult protective services agencies and certain other parties to access confidential information from adult abuse cases to help them provide protective services to vulnerable adults. This change removes confidentiality barriers that previously prevented the sharing of case details needed to actually help abuse victims get the support and protection they need.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
