Description
Office of the Children's Ombudsman. Repeals the Children's Advocacy Fund, created to support the Office of the Children's Ombudsman (Office), as general funds are used to fund the Office. The definition of "abused and neglected child" is amended to match the definition in Title 63.2. The bill removes the authority previously granted to the Office to investigate "adoption attorneys." The bill also clarifies that the Office is exempt from the Virginia Freedom of Information Act. Finally, the bill contains several technical amendments. Read the Bill »
