The bill SB1727 establishes the Spouses and Dependents of Law Enforcement Officers Tuition Scholarship Fund, which will be administered by the Arizona Board of Regents (ABOR). This fund will provide tuition scholarships to the spouses and dependents of law enforcement officers who enroll in various educational programs, including Arizona public universities, community colleges, and licensed private postsecondary institutions. The scholarships will be awarded on a first-come, first-served basis and will cover tuition and mandatory fees, subject to available funds and other financial aid received by the individual.

Additionally, the bill outlines specific eligibility requirements, limits the duration of scholarship use to four academic years or eight semesters, and mandates ABOR to report annually on the scholarship's impact. It also includes provisions for the Arizona Area Health Education System to support primary care residency programs and specifies that the Scholarship Fund's monies are continuously appropriated and exempt from lapsing. Overall, the bill aims to enhance educational opportunities for the families of law enforcement officers while addressing the needs of primary care residency programs in Arizona.
