The Senate Resolution establishes the Task Force on the Regulation of Community-Based Residential Settings in Louisiana, which is a continuation of the previous Task Force on Prevention of Human Degradation and Exploitation of Vulnerable Individuals. The new task force is tasked with studying and making recommendations regarding the regulations that protect vulnerable individuals living in community-based residential settings. It will consist of various members from state departments, associations, and appointed individuals, and is required to meet regularly to fulfill its mission. The task force must submit a report, including any legislative proposals, by March 1, 2025.

The resolution outlines the specific areas the task force will focus on, including reviewing existing laws and regulations, proposing new protections for vulnerable individuals, and recommending penalties for property owners who exploit residents. Additionally, the task force will develop transition plans for individuals living in unsafe or unhealthy conditions. The task force is expected to convene its first meeting by October 1, 2024, and will operate without compensation, except for any per diem or expense reimbursements. The task force is set to terminate on July 1, 2025.
