Bill > SB2268

This bill appropriates $7.5 million from the General Revenue Fund to the Department of Human Services (DHS) specifically to provide a grant to the Illinois Network of Centers for Independent Living. The grant will be used to administer and implement the Home Modification Program, which likely helps individuals with disabilities or mobility challenges modify their living spaces to improve accessibility and independence. The bill specifies that the funding will become effective on July 1, 2025, and the amount appropriated can be adjusted based on actual program needs (as indicated by the phrase "or so much of that amount as may be necessary"). The Illinois Network of Centers for Independent Living will be responsible for managing the program, which suggests the funds will support home renovations or adaptations that help people with disabilities live more comfortably and independently in their own homes.
