The bill amends various sections of the Oklahoma Children's Code and related statutes to enhance the authority and responsibilities of the Office of Client Advocacy within the State Department of Health. Key provisions include granting the Office the ability to inspect juvenile court and Department of Human Services records without a court order, expanding access to these records for additional individuals and entities, and clarifying the duties of the Advocate General. The bill also updates definitions and statutory language related to protective services for vulnerable adults, mandates the Office to report investigative findings to the Department of Human Services, and establishes a grievance system for children in custody and foster parents, thereby strengthening child advocacy and protection in Oklahoma.

Additionally, the bill revises laws concerning the confidentiality of information in guardianship and conservatorship proceedings, ensuring that such information is sealed and access is strictly controlled. It adds the Office of Client Advocacy as an authorized representative to access confidential information while removing the Department of Human Services from this list. The bill also outlines the responsibilities of individuals who suspect abuse or neglect of vulnerable adults, introduces new definitions, and emphasizes confidentiality during investigations. Furthermore, it enhances the authority of the Department of Human Services to intervene in cases of exploitation, allowing for asset freezing and court petitions for protective services, while ensuring that the rights of vulnerable adults are respected throughout the process.
