AI Summary
This bill, the Community Services Block Grant Modernization Act of 2022, would reauthorize and update the Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) program. The key provisions include:
- Reauthorizing the CSBG program, which provides funding to states and territories to support local community action plans carried out by eligible entities (often community action agencies) to reduce poverty.
- Updating definitions and purposes of the program to focus on improving the economic security of low-income individuals and families and creating new economic opportunities.
- Requiring states to participate in a results-oriented performance measurement system and submit annual reports on program activities and outcomes.
- Providing the Secretary of Health and Human Services authority to conduct assessments of state compliance with program requirements and take corrective action if necessary.
- Authorizing new funding for innovative and evidence-based projects to reduce poverty, as well as discretionary programs like rural community development and broadband navigator projects.
The bill aims to modernize and strengthen the CSBG program to better address poverty conditions and promote self-sufficiency at the community level.
