    (20 ILCS 1605/21.7 new)

    Sec. 21.7. Quality of Life scratch-off game.
    (a) The Department shall offer a special instant 
scratch-off game with the title of "Quality of Life". The game 
shall commence on July 1, 2007 or as soon thereafter, in the 
discretion of the Director, as is reasonably practical, and 
shall be discontinued on December 31, 2012. The operation of 
the game is governed by this Act and by any rules adopted by 
the Department.  The Department must consult with the Quality of 
Life Board, which is established under Section 2310-348 of the 
Department of Public Health Powers and Duties Law of the
Civil 
Administrative Code of Illinois, regarding the design and 
promotion of the game. If any provision of this Section is 
inconsistent with any other provision of this Act, then this 
Section governs.
    (b) The Quality of Life Endowment Fund is created as a 
special fund in the State treasury.  The net revenue from the 
Quality of Life special instant scratch-off game must be 
deposited into the Fund for appropriation by the General 
Assembly solely to the Department of Public Health for the 
purpose of  HIV/AIDS-prevention education and for making grants 
to public or private entities in Illinois for the purpose of 
funding organizations that serve the highest at-risk 
categories for contracting HIV or developing AIDS. Grants shall 
be targeted to serve at-risk populations in proportion to the 
distribution of recent reported Illinois HIV/AIDS cases among 
risk groups as reported by the Illinois Department of Public 
Health. The recipient organizations must be engaged in 
HIV/AIDS-prevention education and HIV/AIDS healthcare 
treatment. The Department must, before grants are awarded, 
provide copies of all grant applications to the Quality of Life 
Board, receive and review the Board's recommendations and 
comments, and consult with the Board regarding the grants. 
Organizational size will determine an organization's 
competitive slot in the "Request for Proposal" process. 
Organizations with an annual budget of $300,000 or less will 
compete with like size organizations for 50% of the Quality of 
Life annual fund. Organizations with an annual budget of 
$300,001 to $700,000 will compete with like organizations for 
25% of the Quality of Life annual fund, and organizations with 
an annual budget of $700,001 and upward will compete with like 
organizations for 25% of the Quality of Life annual fund. The 
lottery may designate a percentage of proceeds for marketing 
purpose. The grant funds may not be used for institutional, 
organizational, or community-based overhead costs, indirect 
costs, or levies.
    Grants awarded from the Fund are intended to augment the 
current and future State funding for the prevention and 
treatment of HIV/AIDS and are not intended to replace that 
funding.

    Moneys received for the purposes of this Section, 
including, without limitation, net revenue from the special 
instant scratch-off game and gifts, grants, and awards from any 
public or private entity, must be deposited into the Fund.   Any 
interest earned on moneys in the Fund must be deposited into 
the Fund.
    For purposes of this subsection, "net revenue" means the 
total amount for which tickets have been sold less the sum of 
the amount paid out in prizes and the actual administrative 
expenses of the Department solely related to the Quality of 
Life game.
    (c) During the time that tickets are sold for the Quality 
of Life game, the Department shall not unreasonably diminish 
the efforts devoted to marketing any other instant scratch-off 
lottery game.
    (d) The Department may adopt any rules necessary to 
implement and administer the provisions of this Section in 
consultation with the Quality of Life Board.

 
    Section 10. The Department of Public Health Powers and 
Duties Law of the
Civil Administrative Code of Illinois is
