Korey Elger, Permanency Manager at Colorado Department of Human Services talks about the implications of CO HB23-1027: Parent and Child Family Time.

This bill changes the term “visitation” to “family time” and defines it as any form of contact or engagement between parents, legal custodians, guardians, siblings, and children or youth for the purposes of preserving and strengthening family ties and cultural connections.
