AI Summary

This bill amends the Township Code to create the Lake County Community Coalition Fund. On July 1, 2025, the State Comptroller and Treasurer will transfer $5 million from the General Revenue Fund to this new fund. The Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority can then provide grants from this fund to the Waukegan Township Board, which can in turn provide grants to local nonprofits for services like transitional housing, violence prevention, youth mentorship, substance abuse treatment, reentry services, cultural training, and vocational training. Beginning in July 2026, the General Assembly must appropriate at least $5 million annually for these grants, and if they appropriate less, the bill constitutes a continuing appropriation to fulfill the $5 million requirement. The bill also amends the State Finance Act to create the Lake County Community Coalition Fund.
