The bill proposes the creation of a new section within the Children, Youth and Families Department Act that focuses on utilizing autobiographical storytelling as a trauma-informed strategy to aid in the language and emotional development of children in foster care. It mandates the department to contract with speech-language pathologists who will provide training and workshops for families and case workers. These sessions will aim to enhance language support and storytelling skills by using family experiences in subjects like mathematics, science, or history as the basis for shared narratives.

Additionally, the bill outlines the establishment of standards for the training and workshops provided by speech-language pathologists, ensuring quality management, accessibility, and confidentiality of client records. It also emphasizes the need for a framework that will be created, implemented, and continuously evaluated to assess the effectiveness of storytelling and language development initiatives for children in foster care, ultimately aiming to foster their autobiographical memory.
