This bill creates the "Missouri Crime Victims Fund", which will be a dedicated fund. The funds will be disbursed to entitlement jurisdictions, eligible entities, or local government entities that are eligible for victim assistance grants under federal law and related regulations, and the eligible jurisdictions and entities will use the funds for the same purposes as those jurisdictions or entities can use the grants under federal law and related regulations. Such purposes include victim support services, such as lost wages, counseling, and medical costs.
