Abstract
(SB1015 · 103rd Legislature) State agencies (proposed): other; office of community violence intervention services; establish. Creates new act. TIE BAR WITH: SB 1016’26 Latest action (2026-06-23): Referred To Committee Of The Whole
Why this matters
Creating a dedicated Office of Community Violence Intervention Services would add a new state agency and associated staffing, contracting, and grant-making footprint to Michigan’s executive branch. For workers in violence-prevention nonprofits and for local governments seeking intervention funding, a permanent office could formalize a funding channel; for taxpayers, the fiscal scale depends on the tie-barred SB1016 and any appropriation.
