This bill proposes an appropriation of $5,000,000 for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, specifically allocated for grants to Arkansas Area Agencies on Aging to support congregate and home-delivered meals through the Department of Human Services - Division of Aging, Adult, and Behavioral Health Services. The funds will be transferred from the General Revenue Allotment Reserve Fund to ensure that these essential services can continue without interruption.

Additionally, the bill includes an emergency clause, indicating that the funds are necessary for the immediate preservation of public health and safety due to unforeseen circumstances that have rendered current funding insufficient. This clause ensures that the act will take effect immediately upon passage and approval, allowing for prompt disbursement of the appropriated funds to support the ongoing operations of the Department of Human Services in providing vital meal services.
