AI Summary

This bill repeals the community protection program, a program designed to provide services and housing for individuals deemed sexually violent predators. The legislation aims to allow clients of the home and community living administration to access less restrictive service options without reducing their overall support. By December 31, 2026, the Department of Social and Health Services must develop a plan to transition all individuals currently in the community protection program into other services, with this transition plan expiring on July 1, 2027. The bill amends existing laws (RCW 71.09.020 and RCW 71.09.060) to remove references to the community protection program as a potential placement or treatment option for individuals committed as sexually violent predators, and it explicitly repeals several sections of the Revised Code of Washington (RCW) related to the program's establishment, definitions, and operations. The changes related to the repeal of the program will take effect on January 1, 2027.
