Senate Bill No. 126, Public Act No. 24-92, is an act concerning home visits and evaluations conducted by the Department of Children and Families (DCF). The bill defines a "safety plan" as a strategy established by the DCF to address or mitigate behaviors, conditions, or circumstances in a home that may be unsafe for children. The safety plan includes identifying actions to be taken to address these issues, specifying the individuals or providers responsible for these actions, and setting time frames for the department to review the actions.

The bill stipulates that when the Commissioner of Children and Families, or their designee, conducts a home visit or evaluation as part of a safety plan, it must be done in person. However, an exception is made for situations where a resident of the home is under an order of quarantine or isolation as per section 19a-131b of the general statutes. In such cases, the visit or evaluation may be conducted using telephonic, video, or other conferencing platforms. This bill is effective from July 1, 2024, and was approved on May 30, 2024.
