Juvenile correctional system
Under current law relating to community youth and family aids (generally referred to as "youth aids"), DOC must allocate to counties various state and federal moneys to pay for state-provided juvenile correctional services and local delinquency-related and juvenile justice services. This bill sets the amounts of youth aids that DOC must allocate to counties in the 2013-15 state fiscal biennium.
