on a trial discharge. Where the permanency goal for a [child] YOUTH
aging out of foster care is another planned permanent living arrangement
that includes a significant connection to an adult willing to be a
permanency resource for the [child] YOUTH, the local social services
district may also discharge the [child] YOUTH on a trial basis to the
planned permanent living arrangements, unless the court has prohibited
or otherwise conditioned such a trial discharge. Trial discharge for a
[child] YOUTH aging out of foster care shall mean that a [child] YOUTH
is physically discharged but the local social services district retains
care and custody or custody and guardianship of the [child] YOUTH and
there remains a date certain for the scheduled permanency hearing.
TRIAL DISCHARGE FOR A YOUTH AGING OUT OF FOSTER CARE MAY BE EXTENDED AT
EACH SCHEDULED PERMANENCY HEARING, UNTIL THE CHILD REACHES THE AGE OF
TWENTY-ONE, IF A CHILD OVER THE AGE OF EIGHTEEN CONSENTS TO SUCH EXTEN-
SION. PRIOR TO FINALLY DISCHARGING A YOUTH AGING OUT OF FOSTER CARE TO
ANOTHER PLANNED PERMANENT LIVING ARRANGEMENT, THE LOCAL SOCIAL SERVICES
OFFICIAL SHALL GIVE THE YOUTH NOTICE OF THE RIGHT TO APPLY TO REENTER
FOSTER CARE WITHIN THE EARLIER OF TWENTY-FOUR MONTHS OF THE FINAL
DISCHARGE OR THE YOUTH'S TWENTY-FIRST BIRTHDAY IN ACCORDANCE WITH ARTI-
CLE TEN-B OF THIS ACT. SUCH NOTICE SHALL ALSO ADVISE THE YOUTH THAT
REENTRY INTO FOSTER CARE WILL ONLY BE AVAILABLE WHERE THE FORMER FOSTER
CARE YOUTH HAS NO REASONABLE ALTERNATIVE TO FOSTER CARE AND CONSENTS TO
ENROLLMENT IN AND ATTENDANCE AT AN APPROPRIATE EDUCATIONAL OR VOCATIONAL
PROGRAM IN ACCORDANCE WITH PARAGRAPH TWO OF SUBDIVISION (A) OF SECTION
ONE THOUSAND NINETY-ONE OF THIS ACT. Children placed under this section
shall be placed until the court completes the initial permanency hearing
scheduled pursuant to article ten-A of this act. Should the court deter-
mine pursuant to article ten-A of this act that placement shall be
extended beyond completion of the scheduled permanency hearing, such
extended placement and any such successive extensions of placement shall
expire at the completion of the next scheduled permanency hearing,
unless the court shall determine, pursuant to article ten-A of this act,
to continue to extend such placement.
(e) No placement may be made or continued under this section beyond
the child's eighteenth birthday without his or her consent and in no
event past his or her twenty-first birthday. HOWEVER, A FORMER FOSTER
CARE YOUTH UNDER THE AGE OF TWENTY-ONE WHO WAS PREVIOUSLY DISCHARGED
FROM FOSTER CARE DUE TO A FAILURE TO CONSENT TO CONTINUATION OF PLACE-
MENT MAY MAKE A MOTION PURSUANT TO SECTION ONE THOUSAND NINETY-ONE OF
THIS ACT TO RETURN TO THE CUSTODY OF THE LOCAL COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL
SERVICES OR OTHER OFFICER, BOARD OR DEPARTMENT AUTHORIZED TO RECEIVE
CHILDREN AS PUBLIC CHARGES. IN SUCH MOTION, THE YOUTH MUST CONSENT TO
ENROLLMENT IN AND ATTENDANCE AT A VOCATIONAL OR EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM IN
ACCORDANCE WITH PARAGRAPH TWO OF SUBDIVISION (A) OF SECTION ONE THOUSAND
NINETY-ONE OF THIS ACT.

twenty-seven or one thousand fifty-two of this act, or directly placed

all orders regarding supervision, protection or services have expired.
The court shall rehear the matter whenever it deems necessary or desira-
ble, or upon motion by any party entitled to notice in proceedings under
this article, or by the [law guardian] ATTORNEY for the child, and when-
ever a permanency hearing is required by this article. While the court
maintains jurisdiction over the case, the provisions of section one
thousand thirty-eight of this act shall continue to apply. THE COURT
SHALL ALSO MAINTAIN JURISDICTION OVER A CASE FOR PURPOSES OF HEARING A
MOTION TO PERMIT A FORMER FOSTER CARE YOUTH UNDER THE AGE OF TWENTY-ONE
WHO WAS DISCHARGED FROM FOSTER CARE DUE TO A FAILURE TO CONSENT TO
CONTINUATION OF PLACEMENT TO RETURN TO THE CUSTODY OF THE LOCAL COMMIS-
SIONER OF SOCIAL SERVICES OR OTHER OFFICER, BOARD OR DEPARTMENT AUTHOR-
IZED TO RECEIVE CHILDREN AS PUBLIC CHARGES.

sitional hearing at which the child was freed for adoption in a proceed-
ing pursuant to section three hundred eighty-three-c, three hundred

cy hearing and advise all parties in court of the date set, except for

YOUTH WHO WAS PREVIOUSLY DISCHARGED FROM FOSTER CARE DUE TO A FAILURE TO
CONSENT TO CONTINUATION OF PLACEMENT MAY BE RETURNED TO THE CUSTODY OF
THE LOCAL COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SERVICES OR OTHER OFFICER, BOARD OR
DEPARTMENT AUTHORIZED TO RECEIVE CHILDREN AS PUBLIC CHARGES IF THE COURT

S 6. Clause (C) of subparagraph (viii) of paragraph 2 of subdivision
(d) of section 1089 of the family court act, as amended by chapter 437
of the laws of 2006, is amended to read as follows:
(C) Where the permanency goal is return to parent and it is antic-
ipated that the child may be returned home before the next scheduled
permanency hearing, the court may provide the local social services
district with authority to finally discharge the child to the parent
without further court hearing, provided that ten days prior written
notice is served upon the court and [law guardian] ATTORNEY FOR THE
CHILD. If the court on its own motion or the [law guardian] ATTORNEY FOR
THE CHILD on motion to the court does not request the matter to be
brought for review before final discharge, no further permanency hear-
ings will be required. The local social services district may also
discharge the child on a trial basis to the parent unless the court has
prohibited such trial discharge or unless the court has conditioned such
trial discharge on another event. For the purposes of this section,
trial discharge shall mean that the child is physically returned to the
parent while the child remains in the care and custody of the local
social services district. Permanency hearings shall continue to be held
for any child who has returned to his or her parents on a trial
discharge. Where the permanency goal for a [child] YOUTH aging out of
foster care is another planned permanent living arrangement that
includes a significant connection to an adult willing to be a permanency
resource for the [child] YOUTH, the local social services district may
also discharge the [child] YOUTH on a trial basis to the planned perma-
nent living arrangements, unless the court has prohibited or otherwise
conditioned such a trial discharge. Trial discharge for a [child] YOUTH
aging out of foster care shall mean that [a child] THE YOUTH is phys-
ically discharged but the local social services district retains care
and custody or custody and guardianship of the child and there remains a
date certain for the scheduled permanency hearing. TRIAL DISCHARGE FOR
A YOUTH AGING OUT OF FOSTER CARE MAY BE EXTENDED AT EACH SCHEDULED
PERMANENCY HEARING, UNTIL THE YOUTH REACHES THE AGE OF TWENTY-ONE, IF A
YOUTH OVER THE AGE OF EIGHTEEN CONSENTS TO SUCH EXTENSION. PRIOR TO
FINALLY DISCHARGING A YOUTH AGING OUT OF FOSTER CARE TO ANOTHER PLANNED
PERMANENT LIVING ARRANGEMENT, THE LOCAL SOCIAL SERVICES OFFICIAL SHALL
GIVE THE YOUTH NOTICE OF THE RIGHT TO APPLY TO REENTER FOSTER CARE WITH-
IN THE EARLIER OF TWENTY-FOUR MONTHS OF THE FINAL DISCHARGE OR THE
S. 4388 5
YOUTH'S TWENTY-FIRST BIRTHDAY IN ACCORDANCE WITH ARTICLE TEN-B OF THIS
ACT. SUCH NOTICE SHALL ALSO ADVISE THE YOUTH THAT REENTRY INTO FOSTER
CARE WILL ONLY BE AVAILABLE WHERE THE FORMER FOSTER CARE YOUTH HAS NO
REASONABLE ALTERNATIVE TO FOSTER CARE AND CONSENTS TO ENROLLMENT IN AND
ATTENDANCE AT AN APPROPRIATE EDUCATIONAL OR VOCATIONAL PROGRAM IN
ACCORDANCE WITH PARAGRAPH TWO OF SUBDIVISION (A) OF SECTION ONE THOUSAND
NINETY-ONE OF THIS ACT.
S 7. Subdivision (a) of section 1090 of the family court act, as added
by section 27 of part A of chapter 3 of the laws of 2005, is amended to

(a) If [a law guardian] AN ATTORNEY for the child has been appointed
by the family court in a proceeding pursuant to section three hundred
fifty-eight-a, three hundred eighty-three-c, three hundred eighty-four,
or three hundred eighty-four-b of the social services law, or article
ten of this act, the appointment of the [law guardian] ATTORNEY shall
continue without further court order or appointment, unless another
appointment of [a law guardian] AN ATTORNEY has been made by the court,
until the child is discharged from placement and all orders regarding
supervision, protection or services have expired. THE ATTORNEY SHALL
ALSO REPRESENT THE CHILD WITHOUT FURTHER ORDER OR APPOINTMENT IN ANY
PROCEEDINGS UNDER ARTICLE TEN-B OF THIS ACT. All notices, reports and
motions required by law shall be provided to such [law guardian] ATTOR-
NEY. The [law guardian] ATTORNEY may be relieved of his or her represen-
tation upon application to the court for termination of the appointment.
Upon approval of the application, the court shall immediately appoint
another [law guardian] ATTORNEY to whom all notices, reports, and
motions required by law shall be provided.

SERVICES OR OTHER OFFICER, BOARD OR DEPARTMENT AUTHORIZED TO RECEIVE
CHILDREN AS PUBLIC CHARGES, MAY BE MADE BY SUCH FORMER FOSTER CARE
YOUTH, OR BY A LOCAL SOCIAL SERVICES OFFICIAL UPON THE CONSENT OF SUCH
FORMER FOSTER CARE YOUTH, IF THERE IS A COMPELLING REASON FOR SUCH

THE RE-ENTRY OF A FORMER FOSTER CARE YOUTH, AND WHERE IT IS ALLEGED
