The Family Notification of Death, Injury, or Illness in Custody Act of 2025 aims to establish federal guidelines for notifying family members or emergency contacts when individuals in federal custody experience serious medical events, including death, serious illness, or injury. The legislation seeks to ensure that families receive timely and compassionate notifications, which is vital for preserving the dignity of those in custody and their loved ones. Key provisions require detention agencies to create and implement policies for notifying next-of-kin or emergency contacts.
