Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:
1. That § 63.2-905.1 of the Code of Virginia is amended and reenacted as follows:
§ 63.2-905.1. Independent living services.
Local departments may provide independent living services to persons between 18 and 21 years of age who are in the process of transitioning from foster care to self-sufficiency. Any person who was committed or entrusted to a local board or licensed child-placing agency may choose to discontinue receiving independent living services any time before his 21st birthday in accordance with regulations adopted by the Board. The local board or licensed child-placing agency shall restore independent living services at the request of that person provided that (i) the person has not yet reached 21 years of age and (ii) the person has entered into a written agreement, less than 60 days after independent living services have been discontinued, with the local board or licensed child-placing agency regarding the terms and conditions of his receipt of independent living services.
