Bill	Juveniles: ward, dependent, and nonminor dependent parents.	Existing law establishes the jurisdiction of the juvenile court, which may adjudge a child to be a dependent of the court under certain circumstances, including when the child suffered or there is a substantial risk that the child will suffer serious physical harm, or a parent fails to provide the child with adequate food, clothing, shelter, or medical treatment. Existing law authorizes a social worker to commence proceedings in the juvenile court to declare a child to be a dependent child of the court by the filing of a petition with the court. In any case in which a social worker, after investigation of an application for petition or other investigation, determines that a child is within the jurisdiction of the juvenile court or will probably soon be within the jurisdiction, existing law authorizes the social worker, in lieu of filing a petition or subsequent to dismissal of a petition already filed, and with the consent of the child's parent or guardian, to undertake a program of supervision of the child. If the parent is a dependent of the juvenile court at the time that a social worker seeks to undertake a program of supervision, and if counsel has been appointed for the parent, existing law prohibits the program of supervision from being undertaken until the parent has consulted with his or her counsel.	us/states/ca	California Legislature	20172018	AB 1371	California AB 1371 (20172018)	bill	Juveniles: ward dependent and nonminor dependent parents.	enacted	Mark Stone	9	32	10	2017-02-17	2017-10-11	openstates	ocd-bill/a2444259-6bb4-4fa0-834a-e154cbf5af04	http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180AB1371	4c6f3265dd5f1d9840b09a2696b5b0a5bd7a6e0134a7f347a0861471113d65ce	2026-07-01	https://data.openstates.org/daily/2026-07-01/public.pgdump	2026-07-06	reported	legislation bill us-ca

California AB 1371 (20172018) — Juveniles: ward, dependent, and nonminor dependent parents.

Existing law establishes the jurisdiction of the juvenile court, which may adjudge a child to be a dependent of the court under certain circumstances, including when the child suffered or there is a substantial risk that the child will suffer serious physical harm, or a parent fails to provide the child with adequate food, clothing, shelter, or medical treatment. Existing law authorizes a social worker to commence proceedings in the juvenile court to declare a child to be a dependent child of the court by the filing of a petition with the court. In any case in which a social worker, after investigation of an application for petition or other investigation, determines that a child is within the jurisdiction of the juvenile court or will probably soon be within the jurisdiction, existing law authorizes the social worker, in lieu of filing a petition or subsequent to dismissal of a petition already filed, and with the consent of the child's parent or guardian, to undertake a program of supervision of the child. If the parent is a dependent of the juvenile court at the time that a social worker seeks to undertake a program of supervision, and if counsel has been appointed for the parent, existing law prohibits the program of supervision from being undertaken until the parent has consulted with his or her counsel.
