Plain-language change summary

The changes made to Bill SB 35 primarily extend the duration of the Interdisciplinary Parental Representation Pilot Program, allowing it to continue operating beyond its original end date. Additionally, the bill introduces a new rule that prevents anyone who has worked for the Division of Child and Family Services from joining the pilot program for one year after leaving that position. These adjustments are important because they aim to enhance the program's effectiveness and ensure that participants have fresh perspectives, which can lead to better outcomes for families involved in the system.
