Bill No. 633 amends the Oklahoma Juvenile Code, specifically 10A O.S. 2021, Section 2-7-308, to enhance the management information system utilized by the Office of Juvenile Affairs. The bill mandates the implementation of an agency-wide system that integrates existing information systems, ensures security and limited access to information, and includes case-specific data to monitor the status of children and youth receiving services. Additionally, it requires the system to generate management reports and aggregate information for program planning and evaluation.
The bill also expands access to the management information system by authorizing the superintendent or designee for the Oklahoma School for the Blind, the Oklahoma School for the Deaf, and public school districts to access confidential records and reports. This change aims to improve collaboration and information sharing among various entities involved in the welfare of children and youth. The act is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
