This bill requires states receiving child welfare grants to report specified information about child deaths from maltreatment. Specifically, multidisciplinary teams from within the child welfare system in each state must

  • make a finding concerning the causes of each child fatality during the annual review period;
  • submit such findings to the Child Death Review Case Reporting System;
  • develop recommendations to prevent future child deaths from maltreatment;
  • submit annual reports with this information to the state’s governor and legislature; and
  • if the number of child deaths in a state exceeds an established threshold, submit a report to the Children’s Bureau of the Administration for Children and Families.

Further, the Children’s Bureau must promulgate rules establishing standardized definitions for states to use in such reporting.
