Establishes offense of harassing, intimidating, or bullying minor; establishes diversionary program for juveniles charged with offense.

This bill creates a new misdemeanor offense for harassing, intimidating, or bullying a minor based on protected characteristics like race, gender, or sexual orientation, whether through physical acts, electronic communication, or verbal gestures. It directly affects minors targeted by such behavior and juveniles charged with the offense. Key provisions mandate that juveniles charged with this offense must be diverted to remedial education or counseling programs (instead of court prosecution), designed to teach about legal consequences, long-term impacts, and connections to cyberbullying. Fines of up to $100 for a first offense and $250 for repeat offenses apply to both adults and juveniles.
