The bill proposes an appropriation of $1,500,000 for each of the fiscal years 2026 and 2027 from the workforce development fund to support the Mind the G.A.P.P. (Gaining Assistance to Prosperity Program). The funding aims to enhance the quality of life for unemployed and underemployed individuals by improving their employment outcomes and developing their individual earnings potential. This appropriation is designated as a one-time funding initiative, and any unencumbered balance at the end of the first fiscal year will carry over into the second year.

The bill emphasizes the importance of workforce development and aims to provide targeted assistance to those struggling in the job market. By allocating these funds to Mind the G.A.P.P., the legislation seeks to create pathways for individuals to achieve better employment opportunities and ultimately improve their financial stability.
