NC H510

Establishes a Foster Care Children's Bill of Rights under North Carolina's foster care laws, outlining 11 specific protections for children in foster care.

Guarantees foster children a safe home free of violence and abuse, priority placement with siblings, and ability to communicate with assigned social workers with timely responses.

Ensures foster children can remain in their current school if possible, participate in extracurricular activities and religious practices, and maintain contact with separated siblings.

Requires social workers to identify and locate grandparents, adult siblings, and other relatives to inform them of placement options and communicate immunization information to biological parents.

Specifies that violations of these rights do not create a legal cause of action against the State, Department of Health and Human Services, or foster care providers.
