Closes the Parent Education and Mediation Fund and transfers its remaining balance to the Family Court Fund.

The bill closes the Parent Education and Mediation Fund on July 1, 2026, and transfers any remaining balance to the Family Court Fund.

This change aims to streamline fund management and reallocate resources effectively.
