Bill > S2887

This bill establishes the Council for Community Recovery and Family Success, an independent council within the Department of Children and Families, to guide and oversee the development and implementation of a statewide initiative focused on the social and economic well-being of infants, children, youth, and families. The council is tasked with identifying gaps in policies, procedures, and financial priorities related to preventive services, reviewing programs and making recommendations to improve coordination and effectiveness, conducting cost-benefit analyses, and establishing county-level community recovery and family success councils. The bill appropriates $772.6 million over three fiscal years to implement the statewide initiative and allows the council to invest unexpended funds and use the earnings for the purposes of the act.
