The proposed bill would create a new chapter in the Arizona Revised Statutes to establish the Positive Alternatives for Pregnancy and Parenting Grant Program within the Arizona Department of Health Services. This program would provide grants to 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations that focus on healthy pregnancy and childbirth, offering services such as medical care, nutritional education, and parenting support. Key definitions are introduced, including "attending physician," "client," and "direct client service provider," which clarify the roles of involved entities. The bill also specifies that grant funds cannot be used to promote or perform abortions, except in life-threatening situations.

In addition to establishing the program, the bill outlines eligibility criteria for grant recipients, emphasizing nonprofit status and a mission aligned with promoting healthy pregnancies. It mandates annual audits of service providers and requires the Department of Health Services to report on program activities and financials annually. Overall, the bill significantly updates current statutes by introducing structured funding, oversight, and specific requirements aimed at enhancing support for pregnant women and promoting alternatives to abortion.
