Nebraska Legislative Bill LB 961

January 11, 2012
Nebraska's Bill 961 relating to public health and welfare was first introduced on January 11, 2012. It seeks to change provisions relating to case management of child welfare services and designation of service areas. It also aims to provide limits on contracts and extensions prescribed. The bill states that the state of Nebraska has the legal responsibility for children in its custody and accordingly should maintain the decisionmaking authority inherent in direct case management of child welfare services instead of privatization of case mangement of child welfare services.
