OK SB830

Amends 10 O.S. 2011, Section 7504-1.2 to reduce the time requirement for disclosure of medical and social history to prospective adoptive parents from two (2) years to twelve (12) months of residence in the parent's home.

Allows medical and social history information to be disclosed without redacting identifying information when the prospective adoptive parent is a kinship or relative caregiver, or the minor has lived in their home for twelve (12) months or more, unless the Department determines redaction is in the child's best interest.

Requires the Department, child-placing agencies, and attorneys to provide prospective adoptive parents with complete medical and social history reports as early as practicable before the first meeting and before accepting physical custody.

Establishes procedures for filing supplemental medical, social, and genetic history information with district courts and requires court clerks to notify relevant parties of newly available information.

Effective date: November 1, 2017.
