Proceeds from the sale of Invest in Children license plates are deposited into the Juvenile Crime Prevention and Early Intervention Trust Fund within the Department. Based on recommendations of the juvenile justice circuit advisory boards, the department must use these proceeds to fund programs and services that are designed to prevent juvenile delinquency.
