Explanation

(This amendment restores $750,000 each year from the general fund for the newly created Virginia Sexual and Domestic Violence Prevention Fund. The fund will be used to develop and support programs that prevent sexual and domestic violence through strategies that (i) promote healthy practices related to relationships, sexuality, and social-emotional development and (ii) counteract the factors associated with the initial perpetration of sexual and domestic violence. This funding was included in the budget passed in March but was unallotted in April due to the pandemic and subsequently eliminated in the introduced budget.)
