The bill amends Arkansas Code 25-1-111 to update the designations related to certain criminal justice grant programs, specifically adding the sexual assault services program to the list of programs under the Governor's authority for fund administration and disbursement. The bill removes references to the Family Violence Prevention and Services Act in certain contexts while ensuring that the designated state agency must provide opportunities for subgrantee qualification selection assistance and programmatic support for all specified grant programs, including the newly added sexual assault services program.

Additionally, the bill establishes the Grant Advisory Board to assist beneficiaries of these grant programs by providing advice on grant processes, hearing grievances, and requiring timely notifications of any rule changes. The board will consist of representatives from various organizations, including those focused on sexual assault and domestic violence. The bill mandates that the Grant Advisory Board submit quarterly reports to relevant legislative committees regarding the status of fund administration and disbursement, ensuring transparency and accountability in the management of these critical victim services programs.
