AI Summary
-
Creates the "Good Faith Reporting for Child Protection Act" to provide civil liability immunity for charitable organizations, volunteers, and employees who disclose sexually inappropriate conduct with a minor to other charitable organizations or not-for-profits
-
Immunity applies when the disclosure is made in good faith, concerns a current or former employee/volunteer, relates to the person's employment or volunteering with the receiving organization, and is reported to law enforcement or DHS within 72 hours
-
Establishes a presumption of good faith if disclosures comply with the organization's adopted reporting policy that defines sexually inappropriate conduct with a minor
-
Expands existing immunity protections under 76 O.S. Section 31 to include employees of charitable organizations (previously covered only volunteers), protecting them from civil liability for good-faith acts within their official duties
-
Excludes self-reporting from immunity protections, meaning individuals cannot claim immunity when disclosing their own sexually inappropriate conduct with a minor
