The bill also permits the Department of Social Services to provide independent living services to such individuals who are placed in an independent living arrangement and to individuals who are between 18 and 21 years of age who, immediately prior to their commitment to DJJ, had been in the custody of a local board of social services.

Plain-language change summary

The recent amendments to Bill HB 528 modify specific sections of Virginia's Code related to child neglect and juvenile legal definitions. Notably, the bill clarifies that a child is considered abused or neglected not only due to direct harm but also if they are left alone with individuals who have a history of offenses against minors. This change is significant because it aims to enhance the protection of children by ensuring that caregivers are held accountable for potential risks to a child's safety. Additionally, the bill simplifies the definitions related to juvenile courts, making it clearer for families and legal practitioners to understand the laws in these sensitive situations.
