Each county shall fund child abuse prevention coordinating councils which meet the criteria in Section 18982 from the county’s children’s trust fund. In the event that the county does not create a children’s trust fund, the board of supervisors shall apply for funds from the State Children’s Trust Fund. Initial funding of councils shall be scheduled to accommodate ongoing funding of programs or funds already encumbered for other purposes.
Funds for councils selected pursuant to this chapter shall not be considered administrative costs for purposes of Sections 18967 and 18969.
