An Act To Fund Military Sexual Trauma Liaisons
LD 662 allocates $375,500 annually from the General Fund to fund military sexual trauma liaisons in Maine. The bill directly supports military personnel who have experienced sexual trauma by providing dedicated staff to assist them with resources and advocacy. It implements ongoing funding for these liaison positions, as recommended by the Governor's Advisory Council on Military Sexual Trauma. The funding covers both the 2025-26 and 2026-27 fiscal years without new legislative requirements.
