Bill > SB01453

This bill establishes an emergency nonprofit assistance account with three million dollars transferred from the General Fund, contingent upon a projected surplus in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025. The funds will be administered by the Chief Court Administrator and distributed as grants to 25 specific nonprofit organizations in Connecticut during the fiscal year. The grants range from $62,500 to $800,000 and target various community organizations focused on areas such as immigrant services, LGBTQ+ support, health services, refugee assistance, and social services. The largest grant is $800,000 to Planned Parenthood of Southern New England, Inc., and the bill also allocates $112,500 for administrative costs associated with awarding these grants. The account is designed to be nonlapsing, meaning unspent funds will not be returned to the General Fund at the end of the fiscal year, and it will continue to accept any additional moneys permitted by law.
