| Subjects |
Concerning increasing funding for county child welfare prevention services, and, in connection therewith, continuing the Colorado child abuse prevention trust fund and the Colorado child abuse prevention board and making an appropriation.
Bill Summary:
Under current law, funds from the Colorado child abuse prevention trust fund (trust fund) are for child abuse prevention programs and are distributed to organizations, including counties, through a competitive grant process rather than through direct distributions.
The bill increases funding for county child welfare prevention services and programs by changing the source of reimbursement money transmitted to the trust fund from money received for all prevention services and programs identified in the federal Title IV-E clearinghouse (prevention services clearinghouse) to money received by the Colorado department of early childhood and identified in the prevention services clearinghouse.
The trust fund and Colorado child abuse prevention board (board) are scheduled to repeal July 1, 2027. The bill continues the trust fund and board indefinitely.
(Note: This summary applies to the reengrossed version of this bill as introduced in the second house.)
