This bill carries its own appropriation of $320,000 from the General Fund to the Juvenile Court to continue and expand the Early Intervention for Juveniles Pilot Program for another year. (There is already another $320,000 in the Department of Human Services' budget for FY 1998 to continue the current pilot program for one more year. As this is a one-year pilot program, the $640,000 would be one-time funding for FY 1998.) Additionally, the impact to the Courts and the Attorney General's Office from other provisions in the bill is estimated at $541,500 in FY 1998 and $529,500 in FY 1999. If this legislation does not pass, the pilot program would sunset on June 30,1997, per last year's HB 373. The $320,000 appropriated in that bill and carried forward from FY 1997 would not be needed in the Department.
