House Bill No. by Representative Lyons amends and reenacts specific provisions of Louisiana law regarding the Back on Track Youth Pilot Program. The bill reallocates funding by removing the Louisiana Children's Trust Fund Board from the allocation process and designating the Department of Public Safety and Corrections, specifically the office of juvenile justice, to administer and operate the program. It specifies that 15% of annual savings from criminal justice reforms will now be directed to this department for the program's management.

Additionally, the bill outlines that the program will be administered by selected nonprofit groups alongside the Department of Public Safety and Corrections, office of juvenile justice, the Department of Children and Family Services, the Department of Education, and Louisiana Works. The Department of Public Safety and Corrections, office of juvenile justice, is also named as the intermediary for the program, granting it the authority to manage funds and make necessary adjustments to program funding.
