 SENATOR ELLIS asked if HB 214 would create any complications with             
 the duties of the Division of Family and Youth Services (DFYS) and            
 what is standard in other states.                                             
                                                                               
 KATHY TIBBLES, Social Service Program Officer for DFYS, said that             
 HB 214 would have no impact on DFYS duties; furthermore, HB 214               
 would not jeopardize federal funding.  She stated support for HB
.
