Home 9 Youth Justice 9 Almost Everyone Gets an Extension to Implement the Adam Walsh/SORNA Requirements ( Page 23 )
As of now, 237 jurisdictions have requested and received extensions to implement regulations that comply with the requirement of the Adam Walsh Act or the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA).  Extensions have been granted through July, 2011, and as of now only three states (Delaware, Florida, and Ohio) have substantially implemented SORNA requirements.  Of particular note is Ohio in which their plan calls for much more flexibility for dealing with juvenile offenders than had previously been granted, but more information about their effort and the status of other efforts is available through the National Juvenile Justice Network.
