 Introduced by Sen. CLEARE -- read twice and ordered printed, and when

 AN ACT to amend the executive law, in relation to expediting the
 distributions of funds for the supervision and treatment services for
 juveniles program

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Section 529-b of the executive law is amended by adding a
 2 new subdivision 6 to read as follows:
 3 6. Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, state funds appro-
 4 priated for the supervision and treatment services for juveniles
 5 program shall be distributed to an eligible municipality for services to
 6 divert youth at risk of, alleged to be, or adjudicated as juvenile
 7 delinquents, or youth alleged to be or convicted as youthful offenders
 8 or adolescent offenders from placement in detention or in residential
 9 care on an annual basis, subject to available appropriations. Eligible
 10 municipalities shall receive the sum equivalent to at least their last
 11 approved supervision and treatment services for juveniles program plan
 12 for the purposes of implementing the program and to divert youth at risk
 13 of, alleged to be, or adjudicated as juvenile delinquents, or youth
 14 alleged to be or convicted as youthful offenders or adolescent offenders
 15 from placement in detention or in residential care. Such annual allo-
 16 cations shall not be contingent on submitting an approved supervision
 17 and treatment services for juveniles program plan in the current year,
 18 and such annual allocations shall not prevent an eligible municipality
 19 from seeking funds for supervision and treatment services for juveniles
 20 program plan in the current year. At least fifty percent of the funds
 21 allocated must be provided by the eligible county to community based
 22 organizations who work with youth who are at risk of, alleged to be, or
 23 adjudicated as juvenile delinquents, or youth alleged to be or convicted
 24 as youthful offenders or adolescent offenders.
 25 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately and shall apply to
 26 distributions of state funds appropriated for the supervision and treat-
 27 ment services for juveniles program on and after its effective date.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.
