Pretrial Diversion Program Fund.

The district attorney shall establish a Pretrial Diversion Program Fund.

Costs associated with program administration shall include, but shall not be limited to, salaries, rent, vehicles, uniforms, professional or business attire, telephones, communication equipment, postage, office supplies and equipment, training and travel expenses, service contracts, and professional services. At the discretion of the district attorney, after considering an offender's reduced or inability to pay, the district attorney may pay for services or programs for an offender out of pretrial diversion program funds while the offender is in the pretrial diversion program, if special circumstances and justice dictate. However, the district attorney may require the offender to repay these funds.
