What’s in it
AI summary Instead of the health department running programs for kids in the justice system, the judicial branch will now create services to help prevent juvenile delinquency. These programs will focus on keeping communities safe and will be tailored to each young person's specific needs and risk level. This change depends on having enough money available to fund the services.1
Read the official explanation
192, relating to early intervention and follow-up programs for juveniles by juvenile court services of the judicial branch. The legislation will take effect July 1, 2023.192. The bill instead requires the judicial branch to, subject to available moneys, develop programs and services related to juvenile justice delinquency prevention, as set forth in the bill. The programs and services shall focus on community safety and match youth risk level and individual needs. The bill repeals the provision requiring juvenile court services to develop early intervention and follow-up programs that was passed by the general assembly in 2022 and would have taken effect July 1, 2023. These provisions of the bill take effect upon enactment.
