This bill amends and reenacts specific provisions of Louisiana law regarding the Back on Track Youth Pilot Program. It reallocates funding by removing the Louisiana Children's Trust Fund Board as the recipient of a portion of the annual savings from criminal justice reforms. Instead, 15% of these savings will now be allocated to the Department of Public Safety and Corrections, specifically the office of juvenile justice, to administer and operate the program.

Additionally, the bill updates the administration of the Back on Track Youth Pilot Program to include the Department of Public Safety and Corrections, office of juvenile justice, along with other state departments such as the Department of Children and Family Services and the Department of Education. The Department of Public Safety and Corrections, office of juvenile justice, is designated as the intermediary for the program, granting it the authority to manage funds and make necessary adjustments to program funding.
