CA AB1134

Modifies Section 361.5 of the Welfare and Institutions Code to restrict family reunification services for parents or guardians convicted of a violent felony when the victim was a child under their custody.

Changes the requirement from denying reunification services based solely on a violent felony conviction to requiring that the victim of the violent felony must have been a child in the parent's or guardian's custody.

Expands the scope of individuals who may be denied reunification services, thereby imposing additional duties on county child welfare departments.

Declares that no state reimbursement is required for the costs imposed by this mandate on local agencies under the 2011 Realignment Legislation.

Requires state funding if the bill increases costs already borne by local agencies for existing mandated programs or service levels.
