Signed by the Governor
Summary
The bill allocates $8 million from the state’s general fund to the Department of Public Safety to award grants to nonprofit groups that serve children who have been abused, victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and commercial sexual exploitation. Grants can be used for emergency shelter, counseling, crisis lines, case management, nurse‑examiner training, and child‑advocacy center services, but not for new programs or legal aid. The department will issue grants each year based on applications received between July 1 and August 31, and recipients must submit annual service reports.
