Relates to creating the multi-disciplinary team demonstration program for complex cases of adult abuse, neglect, or financial exploitation
This bill creates a pilot program to establish county-level multi-disciplinary teams (MDTs) for handling complex cases of adult abuse, neglect, or financial exploitation. The program requires counties to form teams with professionals from health, law enforcement, banking, legal services, aging programs, and other relevant fields, plus a full-time coordinator to manage cases, coordinate services, and use a secure database. It directly affects counties implementing the program, victims of abuse/neglect, and the agencies participating in the teams. The MDTs will operate on a fee-for-service basis and require specific funding to launch, as the bill states it is subject to appropriation. This is a demonstration program, not a permanent mandate, and is currently referred to the Children and Families committee.
