This bill creates a Truancy Pretrial Diversion Program that allows parents, guardians, and custodians of truant children an opportunity to remedy the truancy prior to conviction, allows for additional delays in sentencing to address the underlying truancy, and requires the Department of Human Services to provide home-based family preservation services when ordered by a magistrate or circuit court judge.
