What’s in it
This bill prohibits rules adopted by the department of human services from denying licensure to or otherwise discriminating against a foster home based on the immunization status of the individual or the individual’s children. For the purposes of the bill, “foster home” is defined as an individual who is licensed to provide child foster care; and “individual” is defined as an individual person or a married couple who provides child foster care in a single-family home environment and which does not meet the definition of an agency.
