1 discretion of the Director, as is reasonably practical, and

6 Department of Public Health Powers and Duties Law of the Civil

13 Quality of Life special instant scratch-off game must be
14 deposited into the Fund for appropriation by the General

16 purpose of HIV/AIDS-prevention education and for making grants
17 to public or private entities in Illinois for the purpose of
18 funding organizations that serve the highest at-risk
19 categories for contracting HIV or developing AIDS. Grants shall
20 be targeted to serve at-risk populations in proportion to the
21 distribution of recent reported Illinois HIV/AIDS cases among
22 risk groups as reported by the Illinois Department of Public
23 Health. The recipient organizations must be engaged in
24 HIV/AIDS-prevention education and HIV/AIDS healthcare
25 treatment. The Department must, before grants are awarded,

14 organizational, or community-based overhead costs, indirect
15 costs, or levies.
16     Moneys received for the purposes of this Section,
17 including, without limitation, net revenue from the special

21 the Fund.

23 total amount for which tickets have been sold less the sum of
24 the amount paid out in prizes and the actual administrative
25 expenses of the Department solely related to the Quality of
26 Life game.
