AZ HB2661

Adds new parental rights during child safety investigations, including the right to be informed about delegating temporary guardianship under section 14-5104 and the right to file complaints with juvenile court if rights are being violated.

Requires parents, guardians, or custodians to sign a written attestation confirming they understand their rights under this section, though failure to sign does not waive any rights.

Mandates the Department of Child Safety to ask parents to identify adult relatives or persons with significant relationships to the child who could provide safe placement, and to document this information in case files.

Requires the department to maintain and upload attestation compliance records in its case management system.

Clarifies that parents may notify the juvenile court orally or in writing during dependency or severance proceedings if they believe their rights are being violated and request equitable relief.
