A bill for an act relating to workforce development; appropriating money for a grant to Avivo.
AI Summary
This bill appropriates a total of $1.7 million ($850,000 in fiscal years 2026 and 2027) from the state's general fund to the commissioner of employment and economic development. The funding is specifically designated as a grant to Avivo, a nonprofit organization, to support a unique workforce development program. The program aims to provide low-income individuals with career education and job skills training that is comprehensively integrated with chemical and mental health services. The bill designates this as a one-time appropriation, meaning the funding is not expected to be recurring in future budget cycles. By combining job training with holistic health services, the bill seeks to address multiple barriers that low-income individuals might face when trying to enter or advance in the workforce.
