Tribal family services grants and funding for out-of-home-care placements by tribal courts
Current law uses Indian gaming receipts to fund tribal family service grants and unexpected or unusually high-cost out-of-home-care placements of Indian children by tribal courts. This bill appropriates GPR moneys for those purposes as well.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
