BILL NUMBER:S4529 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the family court act, in relation to reentry of former foster children into foster care This is one in a series of measures being introduced at the request of the Chief Administrative Judge upon the recommendation of her Family Court Advisory and Rules Committee. Chapter 342 of the Laws of 2010, which permits youth who have "aged out" of foster care at the age of 18 to reenter care, has provided a vital "safety net" in cases where such youth would otherwise be facing homelessness or other adverse outcomes. Enacted at the time that Federal foster care assistance first became available for youth between the ages of 18 and 21,{1} the statute has proven invaluable in preventing future societal costs by ensuring that the youth will have the support necessary to fulfill the commitments that they must make to participate in educational or vocational programs as a condition of reentry into care. We submit this measure to clarify one aspect of the statute that has caused some confusion, that is, the categories of former foster youth to whom the statute applies. "Former foster care youth" is not defined in Family Court Article 10-B and, although referenced in the permanency hearing provisions (Family Court Act Article 10-A), no specific cross-references are contained in provisions applicable to
