For purposes of eligibility for and receipt of social services and public assistance, each consumer in a state facility shall be deemed a resident of the county or city in which he resided at the time of his admission to the state facility, and not of the county or city in which the state facility is located. Each person between the ages of two and 21 in the population of any state facility whom the Department determines could benefit from a program of education or training shall be included in the census taken as provided in § 22.1-281. The Department shall be entitled to receive annually from the Board of Education and the school division where the person is included in the census a sum equal to the required local expenditure per pupil, as set forth in the appropriation act, and an additional payment for special education, as applicable, for support of the person's education. This amount shall be paid by the Board of Education, and the Board shall then deduct that payment from the amount payable by the Board of Education from the basic school aid fund to the school division.
