Reasonable Prudent Parent Standard Guide for Juvenile Court Stakeholders

Description

The Judicial Council of California, chaired by the Chief Justice of California, is the policy-making body for the California court system. The Judicial Council’s Center for Families, Children & the Courts (CFCC) supports programs in court settings that improve practice and services for children, youth, parents, families, and other court users.

This request seeks a proposal to develop resources for the juvenile court and juvenile court stakeholders on the reasonable prudent parent standard. The reasonable prudent parent standard was codified into federal law under the Preventing Sex Trafficking and Strengthening Families Act (Public Law. 113-183). The reasonable prudent parent standard seeks to normalize childhood for children in out-of-home care.

Resources include fact sheets, bench cards, guidelines, and legal analysis. Resources are expected to include materials adapted to a range of audiences including judicial officers and juvenile law attorneys, social workers, Court Appointed Special Advocates, parent advocates, caregivers and other stakeholders.
