03 – AB 458 – Foster Youth Anti-Discrimination Act of 2003

Extend the rights of a foster child to have fair and equal access to all services, placement, care, treatment, and benefits, and to not be subjected to discrimination or harassment on the basis of actual or perceived race, ethnic group identification, ancestry, national origin, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or mental or physical disability. This bill would also require training for administrators, licensing personnel, licensed foster parents, and relative caretakers to include training about this right.
