South Dakota will set aside $5 million annually to give grants to nonprofit organizations that help abused children, domestic violence victims, and sexual assault victims. The Department of Health will award these grants based on applications submitted each July and August, prioritizing organizations with financial need, and the money can be used for emergency services, counseling, crisis lines, staffing, and training for sexual assault nurse examiners—but not for starting new programs or paying for legal services.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
