Children's Advocacy Centers of Mississippi Fund; FY 2026 appropriation to the Attorney General to fund Children Advocacy Centers.

SB 3070 appropriates $545,000 for Mississippi's Children's Advocacy Centers (CACs) to cover costs of serving abused children and conducting forensic interviews during fiscal year 2026. The bill also transfers $2 million from the Department of Health's Victim Services Fund and $3.5 million to replace lost federal funding for CACs. These funds would support CACs' critical role in child abuse cases, including forensic interviews that aid investigations. The bill died in committee on February 26, 2025, and did not become law.
