Kentucky law is creating an impossible situation for some parents and primary caretakers—forcing them into incarceration simply because they can’t participate in inpatient treatment programs. The policies of KY SB 122 would offer a smarter path forward by expanding access to alternatives like intensive outpatient care, allowing individuals to be held accountable without destabilizing families or pushing children into the foster system. This is what common-sense criminal justice looks like: prioritizing public safety while protecting the stability that strong families provide.
