House Bill 88 amends the Local Government Code to allow a county commissioners court by contract to donate money to a local or statewide crime prevention organization that has an advisory council consisting of law enforcement officers and volunteers from the community. The organization may use the money for crime prevention programs that train and educate the community in identifying and dealing with segments of society that are prone to victimization, including the elderly population.
