AB 2333: Child welfare nongovernmental organizations.

California · Assembly · 2025–2026 Regular Session · last verified July 18, 2026

What AB 2333 does, verified July 18, 2026

This bill aims to amend the state's child welfare laws to clarify the liability of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) involved in the foster care system. The existing law allows NGOs to be held liable for their own negligence, but not for the actions of the public entities they contract with. The bill would extend the repeal of these provisions from January 1, 2027 to January 1, 2030. This change would provide more clarity and consistency in the state's foster care system, reducing the risk of conflicting claims and ensuring that NGOs are held accountable for their own actions.
