CA AB719

Requires county child welfare agencies to report missing foster children to local police/sheriff's department and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

Applies when a county child welfare agency becomes aware that a child in foster care is missing.

Classifies the requirement as a state-mandated local program, making the state responsible for reimbursing counties for associated costs through existing statutory procedures.

Requires majority vote for passage with no appropriation needed, though the bill was identified as having fiscal committee implications.
