+# Virginia HB 1219 (2018) — Parental rights; restoration of rights to child's parent or parents.
+
+Provides that, at certain foster care review hearings, the court shall inquire of the child's guardian ad litem and the local board of social services whether the child has expressed a preference that the possibility of restoring the parental rights of his parent or parents be investigated. The bill further provides that, if the child expresses or has expressed such a preference, the court shall direct the local board of social services or the child's guardian ad litem to conduct an investigation of the parent or parents. The bill provides that if, following such investigation, the local board of social services or guardian ad litem deems it appropriate to do so, either may file a petition for the restoration of parental rights.

The bill requires any officer or employee requesting leave to provide certification that the officer or employee has been authorized by the United States Air Force, the Governor, or a department, division, agency, or political subdivision of the state to respond to or train for an emergency mission and verification from the Civil Air Patrol of the emergency need of the officer's or employee's volunteer service.
