The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 128, seeks to appropriate thirty million dollars from the General Fund to the Department of Social Services for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2027. This funding is designated for grants to community action agencies, which play a vital role in supporting local communities and providing essential services to those in need.

The primary objective of this bill is to ensure that community action agencies receive the necessary financial resources to continue their operations and effectively serve the populations they support. By providing this funding, the bill aims to strengthen the capacity of these agencies to address critical community needs and enhance their overall impact.
