Bill > AB7

This bill revises the composition and term structure of the Juvenile Justice Oversight Commission to align with federal requirements under the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act. Currently, the Commission has specific membership requirements with 25 appointed members from various backgrounds, but the bill replaces these detailed provisions with a requirement that the Commission's membership must comply with federal guidelines (34 U.S.C. § 11133). The bill extends the term length for Commission members from 2 to 4 years and establishes that all current Commission members' terms will expire on October 1, 2025, at which point the Governor will appoint new members under the revised guidelines. The Commission will continue to serve without compensation but receive standard per diem and travel expenses, maintain the ability to make decisions with a majority quorum, and continue to meet at least once every four months. The bill aims to ensure Nevada's juvenile justice advisory group meets federal eligibility requirements for potential grant funding while providing more flexibility in Commission membership.
