Summary: Current federal law, the Victims of Crime Act of 1984, creates the Crime Victims Fund and authorizes federal financial assistance to states for the purpose of supporting eligible crime victim assistance programs. Current law creates various programs under the Office of Emergency Services related to crime prevention and education, including, among other things, programs concerning family violence prevention and domestic violence prevention. This bill would require the office to allocate funds, upon appropriation by the Legislature, to fill the gap in the federal Victims of Crime Act funding and to prioritize continuity and stability of crime victim services if the federal grant funding that is awarded to the office is 10% or more lower than the amount awarded in the prior year. |

Current law creates various programs under the Office of Emergency Services related to crime prevention and education, including, among other things, programs concerning family violence prevention and domestic violence prevention. This bill, the California Victims of Crime Act, would establish the California Crime Victims Fund in the State Treasury and would require that moneys deposited in the fund be continuously appropriated to the Office of Emergency Services to support crime victims services. The bill would require the Office of Emergency Services to seek advisement from the Victims of Crime Act Steering Committee on priorities for utilizing the funds and would require the Treasurer to provide an annual report to the Legislature on the amounts deposited into the fund. |

Summary: Would provide that every lawyer should aspire to fulfill their individual commitment to provide pro bono legal services each year and contribute financially to California legal aid organizations. The bill, except as specified, would require an active licensee to report annually whether they have provided pro bono legal services and certain other information through the licensee’s My State Bar online profile on the State Bar’s internet website, as prescribed. The bill would require the State Bar to retain and maintain the reported information reported for purposes of historical record for at least 5 years. The bill would make the reported information confidential and exempt from disclosure as a public record, but would authorize the State Bar to publish aggregated and anonymized reports based on that information. Under the bill, the failure of a licensee of the State Bar to comply with its provisions would not be grounds for disciplinary or administrative recourse. The bill would prohibit the State Bar from using specified moneys for any costs associated with these provisions. The bill would define terms for its purposes. |
