The board of county commissioners may establish or maintain spouse abuse programs. For the purposes of this section, a spouse abuse program is a program that provides emergency housing for victims of domestic violence and their dependents, plus some or all of these additional services: counseling, advocacy, community education on domestic violence, support groups, twenty-four-hour crisis lines, or referral to other sources for services not provided by the spouse abuse program. The board of county commissioners may expend funds received from governmental or nongovernmental sources for the purpose of providing spouse abuse programs and providing grants to private organizations or agencies who provide such programs. No expenditure authorized by this section may be made to defray any expense of an organization or agency until the organization or agency is incorporated under the laws of this state as a nonprofit corporation and has contracted with the board in regard to the manner in which such funds will be expended and the services will be provided. An organization or agency and its program which receives these funds must be reviewed for approval annually by the board of county commissioners to determine its continued eligibility to receive funds under this section.
