AI Summary

This bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated, specifically Section 39-13-530(j), to require that recipients of funding from various child abuse-related funds, including the child abuse fund, the child advocacy centers fund, the CASA fund, and the child abuse prevention fund, must now also report annually to the Speaker of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives. These reports will detail how the funds were used, outline collaborative efforts to address child abuse issues, and offer recommendations for improving the state's child abuse prevention and response system. This change expands the oversight of these important funds, ensuring that legislative leaders are informed about their effectiveness and potential areas for enhancement.
