What’s in it

This bill relates to allocations of moneys from the juvenile detention home fund (fund). The fund is in the state treasury under the authority of the department of health and human services for the purposes of establishing, improving, operating, and maintaining juvenile detention homes (homes). Under current law, moneys in the fund are distributed to a home based on the home’s proportion of the costs of all homes in the immediately preceding fiscal year. The bill instead requires $150,000 to be distributed to each home. Moneys in the fund remaining after the initial $150,000 distribution to each home are distributed based on each home’s proportion of the total costs of all homes for the immediately preceding fiscal year.
