The bill amends various sections of the Oklahoma Children's Code, the Oklahoma Guardianship and Conservatorship Act, and the Protective Services for Vulnerable Adults Act to enhance the authority and responsibilities of the Office of Client Advocacy and the Department of Human Services (DHS). Key provisions include granting the Office the ability to inspect juvenile court and DHS records without a court order, expanding access to these records, and specifying the duties of the Advocate General. The bill also emphasizes confidentiality while allowing necessary disclosures to protect children and vulnerable adults. Additionally, it establishes that confidential information related to guardianship proceedings will be sealed and accessible only to specific individuals, including the Office of Client Advocacy, which is newly authorized to access this information.

Furthermore, the bill enhances the DHS's authority to intervene in cases of abuse, neglect, or exploitation of vulnerable adults, allowing for asset freezes and involuntary protective services when necessary. It outlines the procedures for investigations, mandates prompt reporting of findings, and protects employees who report suspected abuse from retaliation. The bill also introduces a community services worker registry and establishes a framework for the payment of protective services. Notably, it modifies existing legal language to streamline processes and ensure that the rights and confidentiality of vulnerable adults are upheld while strengthening the legal mechanisms for their protection. The bill is declared an emergency measure, taking effect immediately upon passage and approval.
