Summary
The Act requires the OHA to take certain steps to make sure that certain people who are under 21 years of age receive the services and supports that they qualify for. The Act requires the OHA and DHS to make sure that children and youth who are served by both agencies get the services they need from both agencies. The Act says that, if a court orders the OHA to provide certain services to a youth, the order does not commit the youth to the OHA or change the youth's guardian. (Flesch Readability Score: 63.5). Requires the Oregon Health Authority to ensure that all children or youth who are eligible for home or community-based services receive the services to which they are entitled. Requires the authority and the Department of Human Services to adopt rules to facilitate cross-agency coordination to support multi-system involved children and youth. Specifies minimum requirements for the rules. Requires the authority to investigate the services and supports that are provided, through the K plan, to children and youth to enable the children or youth to avoid placements in institutional settings. Requires the authority to report specified data and recommendations on the authority's investigation to the interim committees of the Legislative Assembly related to health care and human services by October 1, 2024. Prohibits the denial of mental health assessment, treatment or services to individuals on the basis that the individuals have intellectual or developmental disabilities. Requires the authority to review and amend, as needed, current administrative rules and contracts to ensure that individuals under 21 years of age have access to specified services. Requires the authority and the Department of Education to develop strategies and recommendations for leveraging federal funds to provide certain school-based services and submit a report to the Legislative Assembly by October 1, 2024. Modifies provisions regarding the assessment of a youth's fitness to proceed in a juvenile delinquency proceeding. Clarifies that an order directing that a youth receive restorative services does not commit the youth to the custody of the Oregon Health Authority or alter the youth's guardianship. Limits when a youth may be removed from a current placement to a new placement to receive restorative services. Declares an emergency, effective on passage.
