Sec. 13. In making disbursements from the fund under section 9(1) of this chapter, the board shall primarily consider the geographic distribution by county of persons with incomes of not more than the current poverty threshold established by the United States Office of Management and Budget, as indicated in the most current report published by the Bureau of the Census. However, the board may use other considerations in making disbursements from the fund when demonstrable legal needs are documented by a qualified legal services provider.
