Bill Summary · HB 3798

HB 3798 — $ICJIA‑GRANT CHRC (2025)

Purpose / Intent

HB 3798 would appropriate state funds to support Community Healing Resource Centers (CHRC). The bill directs a one-time appropriation to enable the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority (ICJIA) to make grants to CHRCs to cover their operational expenses.

Key provisions

  • Appropriation: $10,000,000 (ten million dollars) is appropriated from the General Revenue Fund to the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority.
  • Use of funds: The ICJIA is to award grants to Community Healing Resource Centers (CHRC) for operational expenses.
  • Effective date: The Act takes effect July 1, 2025.

The bill text is brief and does not specify detailed eligibility criteria, grant application procedures, distribution formulas, or reporting requirements; those implementation details would be expected to be established by ICJIA or through subsequent rulemaking/administrative guidance.

Who/what is affected

  • Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority (ICJIA): will receive the appropriation and administer grant awards.
  • Community Healing Resource Centers (CHRC): eligible recipients designated to receive grants for operational expenses. The bill does not define programmatic eligibility or prioritization.
  • State budget (General Revenue Fund): a $10,000,000 reduction in available GRF resources for the fiscal year in which the appropriation is charged (effective July 1, 2025).

Legislative status and timeline (selected actions)

  • Filed with the Clerk: February 7, 2025 (sponsored by Rep. William “Will” Davis).
  • First reading: February 18, 2025.
  • Referred to Rules Committee; subsequently assigned to Appropriations — Public Safety & Infrastructure and Land & Resource Management committees.
  • Committee activity: public hearing and testimony (April 24, 2025); reported favorably as substituted (May 2, 2025); committee report to Calendars (May 10, 2025).
  • Current status: Rule 19(b) / Re‑referred to Rules Committee (July 1, 2025).
  • Companion bill: SB 1927.

Potential impact (overview)

If enacted, HB 3798 would provide immediate operational funding to CHRCs via ICJIA grants, potentially increasing capacity or sustainability for local healing/trauma response services. Because the bill contains only an appropriation and not program rules, the precise distribution, eligible activities, oversight, and performance expectations will depend on ICJIA’s grant procedures and any implementing guidance or subsequent legislation.
