1. End the homeless employment grant program
This bill repeals a grant program under which DOA awards grants of up to $75,000 to a municipality for the purpose of connecting homeless individuals with permanent employment. Under current law, a municipality receiving a grant under the program must itself contribute at least $50,000 for the purpose of the grant. Current law also requires that, in awarding a grant, DOA must give preference to municipalities that place a priority on using the grant moneys to pay the wages of homeless individuals and that obtain an agreement from a nonprofit organization to provide additional employment and support services to homeless individuals participating in the grant program.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
