California Shared Parenting Bill

"AB 1307, a new Shared Parenting bill recently introduced in the California legislature, seeks to help preserve children of divorce's bonds with both parents by creating a clear presumption that parents equally share in the responsibility of joint custody of their children unless there is clear evidence that it would not be in the children's best interests.

The California Shared Parenting Alliance (CSPA) is a group of mental health professionals, family law practitioners and concerned parents who believe that children’s need for frequent and meaningful contact with both parents after a divorce is paramount.

CSPA was organized for the purpose of passing AB 1307, a bill which will clarify California law and create a clear presumption that parents equally share in the responsibility of joint custody of their children unless there is clear evidence that it would not be in the children’s best interest.
