AI Summary

This bill expands the eligibility for diversion to treatment for certain criminal offenders. Specifically, it removes the age restriction that previously limited eligibility to those between the ages of 18 and 22 years old. By striking this language, the bill allows for a broader range of individuals to potentially qualify for diversion programs that provide treatment instead of traditional criminal justice proceedings.
